What are children's rights in the age of IVF?
In this episode of The Britt Mayer Show, host Britt Mayer engages in a deep and thought-provoking conversation with children's rights activist and author Katy Faust about the complexities and ethical dilemmas surrounding IVF and reproductive technologies.
They explore the implications of these practices on children's rights, the commodification of human life, the inherent process of eugenics in IVF and the societal narratives that prioritize adult desires over the well-being of children.
Katy shares her journey into advocacy, highlighting the need for a shift in focus towards protecting children's rights in the face of growing commercial interests in fertility.
The discussion also touches on the alarming realities of surrogacy, the redefinition of infertility, and the moral responsibilities of society to safeguard the most vulnerable.
