So, by that logic, when my wife and I donated the leftover embryos for research after we went through IVF, we were handing over human beings to be experimented on and discarded.  Do we deserve to go to jail for that?

...And that is why I am ethically opposed to IVF. Because that's a human life. Whether or not you go to jail depends on the law. It's legal, so no. I doubt you would have done that if it was an illegal thing to do.

CL, you sound just like my wife...
Never kill a cell or a few cells that could possibly become a human person. No buts. No exceptions.

Personally, I see no ethical problem with an IVF before the nervous system is formed... ~12weeks.
Once suffering can be considered, then it gets murky.

It's not like an IVF is performed against the will of the mother... at least in civilized countries.
