Question

Vignette: George and Kathy have tried unsuccessfully for several years to have a baby. Kathy has endometriosis and George has a low sperm count. As a last resort, they saved
money and chose in vitro fertilization (IVF). Their daughter was born healthy and full of energy. Encouraged by the success of the first procedure, they have a second daughter four
years later, also by in vitro fertilization. They chose not to tell their daughters about the procedure. Years later, their oldest daughter hears about in vitro fertilization (IVF) in a
biology class, and mentions to her mom that it's a wonderful option for couples who have problems with fertility.
Question: Did George and Kathy handle this situation correctly? What should they have done? What should they do now, in this situation?
Notes:
1) Do not discuss whether the couple should have chosen in vitro fertilization; instead, discuss how they should have handled the situation with their daughters, did handle it, and
what to do now
2) Endometriosis is a hormonal and immune system disease in which cells, similar to that which line the uterus, grow outside the uterine cavity, most commonly on the membrane
which lines the abdominal cavity.Tin endometriosis, there is a risk of female infertility of up to 30% to 50%.
