Reply to comment by BigFitMama in Parents welcome twins from embryos frozen 30 years ago by genericdude999

I say this as a warning - I found out I couldn't get pregnant around 27 and when I did want to get pregnant it was too late. People change. Pandemics happen. Wars happen. And there is a big fad of child-free people getting sterilized early. People change their minds. I'd hate to be subject to my choices at 20 when I am 40.

We have a World Seed Bank, why not a cryo-storage of human and animal embryos as back-up somewhere near the arctic circle?

But people who have children are also subject to that choice 10, 20, 30 years down the line and not everyone is happy with their choice. No reason to single out childfree people as making a permanent decision they may not be happy with.
