People should have freedom of choice. Why shouldn'y would -be parents be able to do this, given that no harm is done to others by their decision? Article 16 (1) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that: "Men and women of full age...have the right to marry and to found a family." and this right should be understood to cover the right to make decisions over how that family should be formed.

Having a child is a process of wonder and awe. These proposals make having children to something more like pre-ordering a car. To many people the moment of conception is the start of life, touched by God and not to be interfered with or abused out of selfish human motives.
