The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are children, and destroying them could constitute murder. So this raises a number of issues. Keeping embryos frozen is an ongoing expense, borne by the partners of those in vitro fertilizations, presumably, and forever, presumably. Will their descendants have to continue to pay the “rent” forever? What if the original partners can no longer pay? Do the embryos become wards of the state - an embryo orphanage as it were?

And what if the company which houses these embryos goes out of business at some time in the future? Will Alabama take that company over?

Lots of questions that reveal how short-sighted the Alabama ruling was. Look before you leap, people!
