I'm not sure if I'm reading your point correctly but "choice" doesn't mean that pain and anguish should just be accepted then. I really don't want to try to liken it to anything or compare pain, but I would never tell a couple that didn't try to concieve children until later in life that their IF issues were their fault and that they chose that path and should deal with the pain and anguish they experience. Likewise, I don't appreciate others insinuating that since I made a choice to place my child anything that is a result of my choice is something I was asking for.

It's entirely inappropriate in my opinion. We don't do it to others and we shouldn't do it here.
