I’m not an IVF baby but I know a few people that have been dying for children and infertility has been plaguing them. There’s clearly “something in the water” causing these huge infertility rates. Point is, maybe don’t shite talk these people and their children. Using science to do God’s work and help populate the world takes an emotional and financial commitment.

I have a good friend that went through this as well so I’m sympathetic to couples that can’t have children naturally. It seems like it’s usually a sperm count issue or problem with the woman’s anatomy.

However, it does make you wonder that maybe this is being caused by one or the other having some genetic issue that is being selected to not move forward or the two of them being biologically incompatible in some way we don’t know.

Coincidentally, the couple above teenage son is dealing with heart issues that they’re currently treating. Great folks so it’s tough to see them go through this.

The problem is simple, birth control and delaying pregnancy to later ages.


People demand they get to have their fun and date around and they get married late and come off birth control only to discover getting pregnant is difficult.


The Jaffe memo was perfectly correct. Women going to college and pursuing careers at least parallel to pursuing marriage/family came at the cost of marriage/family.

This doesn't even include our secular society which celebrates broken families and celebrates and deifies people who have alternative arrangements.

People who sleep around with thousands of people are heralded. As long as they're attractive and rich they get a free pass for anything and everything.
