Embryo Rights
A woman who had ovarian cancer and split with her partner will not be able to carry the stored embryos to term. They will be destroyed. Her ex doesn't want a child around. She wants to have a child--probably any child given that her ovaries don't work anymore.
This story has so many levels of wrongness, it's almost impossible to sort it out.
- No marriage.
- Fornication.
- Creating embryos.
- Abandonment. (Can't call it divorce, can you?)
- Infertility secondary to cancer.
- Single motherhood by choice.
- Forced parenthood for the man (and ostensibly the financial responsibility as well).
- Abortion.
