As a mother of a donor embryo (donor sperm and egg) child I found reading this extremely upsetting for many reasons, are you suggesting that I should have gave birth to a blind and deaf child that is genetically ‘ours’ instead of our healthy embryo adopted daughter?
I never actually addressed the whatabout of someone deciding to use sperm and egg donations because having their own genetic child would result in major disabilities, as you well know.
I was merely prioritising children's rights and not adult rights.
(The rights of the child to have his or her biological father and mother in his or her life instead of the adults perceived rights or urge to have children). I am sorry this offended you. No offence intended . There is always adoption( mostly from children born in other countries)
Also the world is overpopulated. Not having children should be normalised more.

With donor sperm, a child will have numerous half brothers and sisters with different women, and people do not find this disturbing?
Granted, no one knows much about him,but the guy who donated sperm to Bryony is very likely to be a creep,narcissistic and hugely egotistical.
I guess people think that adult wants are more important than the fundamental rights of the child(including not to be brought into the world in many instances). Or at least the popular view is adult wants are more important. than the rights of the child.
