Well insurance will probably cover the delivery (I think most insurance does) but it probably doesn't cover procedures like in vitro.

I disagree that if they don't have 15,000 cash right now in hand to plunk down that they don't have the money for a baby. A baby is not going to need 15,000 cash right now for its care. The care (diapers, food, etc.) can be paid for as they go, as most folk do.

Now I agree that in vitro often results in multiple births so they will need to evaluate whether they have $$ for that. Maybe twins, no problem but getting into 3 and 4 and 5 babies at once? They will need another website. LOL.

All in all, I think that it's not terribly private but if they are not private people then I don't see a problem with asking others to help with the IVF. I probably wouldn't do it b/c i'm too traditional and see it as kind of odd but I don't see a problem with the website approach in general, and I also cannot think of any ethical issues that it raises. Perhaps folk will want a share of the baby? LOL. Probably not.
