Proponents argue it will protect children, but IVF and surrogacy leave them vulnerable. Screening processes for viability can result in false positives, leading to the discarding of embryos. Only 7% of lab-created children survive until birth. Surrogacy separates a child from their genetic, birth, and social mothers, causing trauma and long-term negative effects.
