Re: Woman loses final embryo appeal

I think he is a mean selfish and spiteful person. It's OK for him, he can go on to father any number of children but he has taken away the only chance she will ever have to give birth to her own baby. When the eggs were fertilized he agreed then to it. That should have been it. He should not have been allowed to go back on that agreement. As has already been said, if they'd conceived a child in the normal way and then split up he couldn't have forced her to have an abortion. In the same way conception had taken place, his sperm had fertilized her eggs and now he is being allowed to change his mind and have those embrios destroyed. As she had said he would not make any claims on him for financial support then I think the decision is wrong.

Yes any child born to her would probably want to trace the father, just the same as any child born after a normal conception would still want to do that after the parents had split up. The time for making the decision was back before she had her cancer treatment and he was in favour of it then. He should have been made to stand by that original decision. Perhaps his current or future partner(s) will see him in a new light to see how heartless and uncaring he is towards someone he once loved enough to want to have a baby with.
