The Influence of IVF on Family Relationship
IVF refers to the process of implanting the fertilized eggs into the uterus of pregnant women after the fertilized eggs are cultivated to reach the implantation conditions during IVF through assisted reproductive technology, so as to achieve pregnancy. With the continuous development of science and technology, IVF has been widely used to solve the problem of infertility. However, the popularity of this technology has also had a profound impact on family relations.
Economic pressure and family relationship
IVF is a high medical expense. From the initial consultation and examination costs to the costs of surgery and pregnancy, the family economy is under great pressure. Some families may need loans or raise funds in order to obtain the opportunity of IVF. This kind of economic pressure is likely to lead to increased tension and pressure among family members, which may exacerbate friction and conflict within the family in the long run.
However, the birth of IVF also brought hope to the family and increased the cohesion among family members. In the face of economic pressure, families unite for a common goal. After experiencing difficulties and hardships, they can cherish each other more and deepen the emotional ties between family members.
Relationship between husband and wife and family
In the process of IVF, both husband and wife experienced many medical examinations, operations and treatments, facing physical pain and psychological pressure. These pressures may have a negative impact on the relationship between husband and wife. Fatigue and emotional fluctuations can lead to quarrels, dissatisfaction and indifference, and even lead to relationship breakdown.
However, compared with the traditional birth mode, IVF has higher expectations. Both the husband and wife have made great efforts to realize their dream of childbearing. This pursuit of common experiences and goals can enhance the understanding and support between husband and wife, thereby improving the relationship between husband and wife and enhancing the sense of intimacy.
Nurturing responsibility and family relations
With the arrival of IVF, family members are facing new responsibilities of parenting. After a long wait and expectation, parents often have higher expectations and concerns for their children. IVF may be overprotected and spoiled to some extent, resulting in a sense of injustice between children and other siblings and psychological jealousy among family members.
However, the arrival of IVF also makes family members cherish and respect the existence of children more. They may be more actively involved in children's education and growth, focusing on the harmonious atmosphere of the family and parent-child interaction. The emergence of IVF is a manifestation of gratitude and responsibility for family members, which can enhance family cohesion and intimacy.
Summary
The emergence of IVF has had many impacts on family relations. Economic pressure may have a negative impact on the relationship between family members, but it can also enhance family cohesion. The relationship between husband and wife may face challenges, but it is also possible to understand and support each other more. The arrival of IVF makes family members face the pressure of parenting responsibility, but it can also deepen the emotional ties between family members. In general, IVF has brought new challenges and opportunities to family relations. Family members need to respond to these changes with an open mind, communication and understanding in order to establish a more healthy and harmonious family relationship.
