Not the Sciene to Blame

Fertility drugs is used to help those infertility people so it's something good when it was invented. Science is supposed to help with the progress of human so it is not the science we should blame for the problems "it caused". Actually, it is us, who take advantage of the science should take the responsibility about how to use it.
In Khamis's case, she use the drug because she wanted to boy, not because she can not have children----she already have and THREE girls. But why she wants a boy? That's because girls in Egypt "can only inherit a portion of their father's money.""In many parts of Egypt, if she doesn't have a boy,it's as if she didn't have children at all."
Then why the doctor Abdel just gave Khamis the drug?I don't know.But the problem is when Adbel found their are nine heartbeats and advised Khamis to do fetal reduction she refused. I believe it's because of the religion though now they allow abortion. The former idea runs very deep into Khamis's mind.
So, it's obvious that it's other elements more than the fertility drugs that make the thing happen.
In a word, I think the drugs should be allowed to help people who really have problems while people should think twice before taking them.
