Disturbing

Yesterday, I read a disturbing newsbit on Foxnews.com. An older couple had invitrio fertilization, which resulted in twin girls. The babies were no sooner delivered via C-section, when the parents announced the girls were unacceptable. They abandoned the babies at the hospital... but not before asking the doctors when they could try IF again.

What if they get another girl?
I suppose it IS a boon to those who might want to adopt an infant.... but the thought of someone rejecting a precious baby solely because of gender- I just can't understand. And I understand twins are harder to place... though I don't understand THAT. Mine have been such a blessing to me.

No, me. That might be kinda of hard though.

You can help me with them, but I get them.

I guess that is okay, because they probably wouldn't let me have them anyway.
