Medicine choices have to be guided by reasonableness and cost. Paying for optional/non-health related costs should be something that is done out of pocket. Last week it was revealed that testing is being done to create a three-parent baby using genetic modification technologies. The current purposes are to eliminate diseases passed on through genes. That's such a waste of resources. We already offer donor eggs, donor sperm and even donor uteri. How essential is it that the mother or father pass on their genes to their baby when other options, including regular adoption, exist.
Of course, don't even get me started on the craziness of spending millions on this research when we have sanctioned the elimination of millions of unborn children since Roe v. Wade.
