As for the six implants, I suspect it’s bunk when we really dig in. The probability of two of the six splitting seems pretty remote.

You may think it’s remote, but you’d be wrong. Every identical twin is a split single embryo. If it splits between 0-3 days the twins each have their own sac and placenta, 4-8 days they share a placenta, but have their own bag, 8-12 the are both in the same bag, after 12 days they are conjoined (Siamese). The later the split occurs the more complicated the pregnancy is. Every reproductive endocrinologist is aware of the risk of splitting embryos. I myself diagnosed quads in someone who I know only had 3 emryos implanted, because my friend did it. The Navy only allows a maximum of 3 embryos to be implanted.
If you know or have known any sets of identical twins they are certainly from split embryos. And don’t forget, it is quite possible our patinet had 4 of the embryos split to form 4 sets of identical twins.

ParticipantIf we have to pay for the consequences of peoples actions then we should have a say in their future actions. That’s part of my definition of equality.
Oh you’ve already had six kids? Well, since we the public will have to pay for the eight more then we say “NO”!!!
Liberals! Make sure we are all willing to share the burden before you commit us to the burden! Forcing people into socialism is an oxymoron, at best.

ParticipantNavydoc, you didn’t say anything.
What is the probability an embryo splits? 32 out of 1000? That’s one, two concurrent splits?
And let’s face facts, ethics and rational thought has been sorely missing between the doctor and patient. The same patient also has demonstrated a glib interpetation of reality regarding not taking welfare, etc.
