As someone who believes life begins at conception, I'd believe these kids are 30, but they've had their physical and mental growth stunted. Something doesn't sit well with me - keeping live human beings trapped in solitary confinement for 30+ years in a test tube, waiting to be traded to the right people who will free them from the prison they don't know they are trapped in sounds like a modern version of "12 Years A Slave".

While I would love to see these kids grow up healthy, happy, loved, with long lives, and that infertility can become a thing of the past through these technological advances, I suspect these kids will have the same problems Dolly the sheep had, and end up degenerating by 40ish due to being frozen for 30 years. Time will tell.
