A relative of mine is about to undergo another round of in vitro fertilization (after previously having two other children by it), and to be honest, I hope it doesn’t work… She and her husband already have four kids who don’t get enough individual attention in the first place. The dad is gone for weeks, sometimes months at a time due to work, and the mom seems to devote more of her attention to her hobbies than to her kids.
This especially seems to affect the youngest two boys (both under four years old), who spend their days plopped in front of the TV or playing with iPads. Another relative was having dinner with them recently at a restaurant, and one of the young boys kept crying and fussing, trying to get out of his high chair and pointing at something across the restaurant… it turned out he could see a TV in the bar area and desperately wanted to go watch it! Now THAT tells you something, now doesn’t it? The older two kids are now in their teens and can mostly fend for themselves at this point, but I just know if they add another baby into the mix, the two youngest boys, who already seem to be falling behind in social and language development, are going to suffer even more. Apparently her appointment to transfer the embryo is coming up within the next few weeks… I just hope for the sake of the kids they already have that it doesn’t take.
