That's beautiful about your uncle. Becoming a well paid classical musician is very rare, he must be very good; your grandparents did well.
When I was in undergrad there was this 16 year old street urchin (for that's what he'd become) who'd hang out with us. He was a foster kid, and his was a life long story of abuse and neglect.
He was a nice kid too and, despite all the drugs he took, he could have been very smart.
What contrast good parents make.
- 999900000999 1y agoMy cousin started as a foster kid, which there are no shortage of. Most foster kids have complicated situations, which I suspect a lot of people wish to avoid. But ultimately it’s going to be work either way. I’m not opposed to IVF, but this story is just strange. They have to create a healthy embryo from the donor egg, instead of just using that healthy embryo, they rip its DNA out to shove into another embryo. Feels like a story of just because you could doesn’t mean you should. I’ll take all the downvotes, I’d wholeheartedly vote to ban splicing multiple embryos together like this.
