    Better to have two dads or two mums who are caring, loving parents than some of the excuses for heterosexual parents that exist in the world.

    :D Who cares what they think of IVF etc. They're just a pair of fashion designers. Ask them about hem lines or handbags instead.

    Whereas everybody posting on this thread is an FRCOG or consultant embryologist?

    They are perfectly free to have their opinions but I think making derogatory remarks directly at children (calling them synthetic children) was nasty. Children have no control over what circumstances they came into the world so to call them names is uncalled for. Would D&G have said to Celine Dion her children were synthetic?

    I am anti IVF, synthetic children, clones, designer babies, 3 people DNA babies - the lot. All totally unnatural and we have given into greed and selfishness.

    If you can't reproduce naturally then natural selection and evolution are being "bypassed" - We are developing our species so that it defies nature and the weak survive. This will do great damage to our species over time.

    I disagree with a lot of medical research too.

    Do you disagree with radiotherapy for cancer patients? That's unnatural and bypassing natural selection after all.

    Like any parent, but parading them in front of 20 cameras that are flashing, is not really good for the child.

    The whole human knowledge is unnatural, we should be jumping from tree to a tree, not discussing D&G.

    Evolution isn't there to 'improve' species as nature isn't sentient. Modern science has made, in biological terms, the human species more successful as more people can now reproduce (and are healthier and stronger and taller etc).

    His hissy fits are not a good example to his children.

    Does he still have them?

    As far as I'm concerned its a trio of a-holes. But as Furnish is also involved that should be a quartet of a-holes.

    Why? What has he done wrong?

    No he hasn't challenged it with a debate he has asked people to boycott their brand in a bullying tactic way.

    Do you really think D&G can be bullied by EJ?

    As far as I am concerned Elton as usual is being precious and odious.

    They have a right to their opinion and have a right to express it.

    How is Elton being odious exactly? He's not the one who's insulted innocent kids.

    The fact that D&G have a right to their opinion - which of course they do - is irrelevant and is not being challenged.

    Exactly. Maybe the poster I quoted would prefer to live as a stone age hunter/gatherer, but thankfully most people are willing to embrace unnatural ideas.

    Our better health and nutrition are the perfect counterpoint to the argument that we weaken the species by 'propping up' negative traits. Besides, it verges on eugenics. Though I'm firmly of the belief that some people are too stupid to breed, but that's more based on parental behaviour than any IQ test:D

    All celebs get their kids photographed, either voluntarily or involuntarily. I don't think that reflects badly on EJ. They'll be papped as young adults endlessly, better they get used to it. I'm amazed at D & G, thought they'd know better. Even the new pope hasn't said anything quite like it.

    Who knows what the future holds for Elton and David.
    Like most celebs they are hostages to fortune when the kids grown up, fall out with them and sign a book contract.

    Although I feel a bit iffy about the 3 parent set up many of us could not have had children without a little medical assistance. I didn't have IVF but I wouldn't have been able to have my lovely, smart, happy children without a bit of medical intervention, nor would I be here anyway as thanks to unnatural chemotherapy I am around to see my children grow.
