Fertility treatment should be allowed for couples who are unable to have children naturally
Some people argue that life is a gift from God, not a privilege or something to take advantage of and so fertility treatment should not be allowed. Others think that infertility is a medical problem, and that doctors can treat it so, we can have the treatment in which case fertility treatment is allowed.
Personally, I think that fertility treatment should not be allowed for couples who are unable to have children naturally because of the most obvious reason that the couples could adopt children without homes and who need to be cared for. It is often the case when one of the parents is infertile and so need to have a donor sperm or egg in which case the baby will not be 100% theirs and that it will have another person’s genes in it meaning that it will be another person’s baby. If this is the case then couples should adopt because that would be the most logical answer as you are giving a baby which has already been born a home rather than giving birth to another baby which still won’t be yours. People may argue that fertility treatment will bring happiness to couples, who otherwise would not be able to have children, but adoption is the same and so it would be even better to adopt as it will bring happiness into the couple’s lives and the couple will know that you have helped a child in need of care. In addition, people say that having fertility treatment is giving unconditional love, agape love, but this could also be argued that giving a home to another child is agape love as you are helping them.
