The Grandmother is raising the first 6 kids and has said that her daughter has lost the plot
she can't cope with her first ones (all 6 of which are crammed in to two small bedrooms), how is she going to deal with 8 more?

OK - that's a consideration
BUT... we don't know enough yet. Did the doctors who did the implantation know this? And, even if they did, does it count as a sufficient reason not to carry out the procedure? There are plenty of people who're suboptimal parents; the point stands that the kids are still better off existing than not existing.

How do you reach the conclusion
that anybody is "better off" existing than not existing? Do you seriously rate life that highly?
