By (it is a bunch of different people because it is a series of letters written to this woman named Prudence asking about donating eggs [female eggs if you get my drift])
even though this topic does have some humorous parts to it like, "we could use the money, and she's just 'flushing them down the toilet every month' anyway." i thought was kind of funny giving the circumstances, but it is a serious topic with only a bit of comic relief. the man's predicament was that he and his wife wanted to have children, but they have sadly fallen into a financial crisis and can not afford to have children at the moment. the wife wants to donate her eggs, acting as if it were as simple as going shopping, and the husband feels moral obligations toward the egg and whoever were to receive it. the person that the husband was writing to was an advice columnist, who i think, gave the right kind of advice for the situation. this column piece was definetly written to couples planning to have children, but were having a hard time financially and were looking to donating as a way to get money. i think any couple, and any gender, can read this woman's advice and give donating more thought than just, "flushing them down the toilet every month."
