Impact Of Alabama Supreme Court Case On IVF | The View

MORE FROM 'THE VIEW':

[mcaflightoffancy]

A judge saying the words "the wrath of our holy god" in an opinion is a massive problem. Religion has absolutely no place in a courtroom when it comes to making judgements.

[justjoddat]

I think something should be paid to the family who is losing their potential child, but I think being tried for wrongful death is ridiculous.

[Cuezaltzin]

So if there's an electrical shortage on one of these banks with frozen embryos or the fridge breaks down is someone culpable of mass murder?

[izzyjoshuadavis]

Sunny legit says "If every single embryo BECAME a child."

Meaning it isn't a child yet.

[mackjrbell]

Sara is making the point that if you have eggs, sugar, flour and butter separately do you have a cake?

[sheldoncole]

I wish they had more time for these segments

[Leonaza]

Ah Alabama. Last in Education, life expectancy, household income, per capita income…
But first in teen pregnancy, in fact mortality, maternal mortality, poverty, and obesity!

[cassettekid]

Again we should not be messing around or bringing the court into people's family business: IVF or abortion.

[fonziegraziano]

This is one of the rare cases I disagree with Sunny. That embryo is not the it is the UNFORMED.

[susisiebert]

I'm confused Catholics… wouldn't you think God didn't want you to have children if you couldn't get pregnant? But you can play scientist if things don't go your way?

[Heather-xzfk]

The government needs to get out of our uteruses. It’s personal. It’s private. It’s confidential. The end.

[suzanne]

Lacy Peterson was over 8 months pregnant and that fetus could have lived outside the womb. That's a far cry from an embryo that could NEVER live embryo is not a child.

[ihill]

Thank you Sara. An embryo is not an unborn child.

[memyshadow]

As a woman that is considering the option for IVF right now, yes I agree if a lab destroys the embryos without my consent and without option for me to use the embyros, I'd sue for damages. But, if a technician in that lab accidently ruined the embryos viability through preparation of implantation, slips and falls or if the lab suffered a power shortage, or was in a location that would suffer a natural disaster resulting in the clinic being destroyed or even if the embryo failed during implantation, which happens more commonly than not ( and is a potential outcome advised during consultation) No way! Condeming the doctors and technicians for unforseen circumstances out of their control, that may have me lose a once viable embryo, and then to equivocate it to manslaughter, absolutely not. This madness is all because of the unreasonable and impassioned zealots overturning Roe V Wade. They've completely muddied our ability for critical and rational thinking.

[stephaniemontgomery]

Sunny said that the embryos (in her belief) are children BUT then said that a 'human embryo is going to attach in your uterine lining and BECOME A which is it????

[MelodyMaker]

I'm actually with Sara on this one. Miracle of life ideas and scientific intervention don't line up in these sorts of discussions.

[TheWasif]

Embryos are not people. The US government (yes, even the ones who try to claim it is) says so. It’s not in the census, it’s not taxed as a person. People say, “I have one kid with one on th way, ” not “two kids.” You can’t have it both ways.

[agrtyme]

We did IVF. In our view, an embryo is the dough. Not baked yet. Not alive. Not even attached to the mom.

[bsmith]

Alabama Supreme Court is so ludicrous in that ruling.

[jbyanx]

I went through IVF and can not imagine going through what I went through, then being told that opportunity has been taken away from me. However, I don't think that nurse went out to destroy my embryo so I would not call it murder but I would go for negligence...
