You know that embryo dumping bothers me. Not from a political standpoint, but why would you create life only to destroy it? I understand that they can't use the embryo for implanting but why can't they use it for future medical miracles that may require DNA matching? I would think that if there was some benefit to the additional embryos most those parents went to a lot of trouble to make them so they would keep them if it benefited their child possibly in the future. I don't think embryo donation and adoption processes would be bad either. Lots of women and men would love to be parents and supposedly there is a shortage of babies to adopt. Just my thoughts this evening.
I do believe every woman has the right to do with her body as she wishes though and whether that is the same mine is irrelevant. That's between her and whatever creator or non creator she chooses to believe.

@Fungirlmmm it's up to the people the embryos were created for, to decide what to do with them (in the USA). Every choice they make, has consequences. To keep them, they would need to continue paying. To donate them to medical research, could mean unauthorized manipulation of your gene pool, to discard them, could raise ethical issues.
If they make no decisions, then the medical facility, may be legally required to dump them.

@Fungirlmmm It’s their DNA, and some people do donate the embryos they don’t use. But others don’t want offspring out in the world whom they don’t know about.

@bijouxbroussard Good point. You would hate ro be sued for paternity later.
@Fungirlmmm absolutely agree with the best use idea, they should be used for something but only in America can we get our panties in such a bunch about it. And the number of hot button issues on SW is so limited and boring...abortion being one of them.
