According to the Adolescence book‚ “Approximately 80 percent of American adolescents have one or more siblings—that is‚ sisters and brothers” (Santrock‚ 2014‚ p. 281).

A Birth to Save a Life 1. I think that it is morally wrong for a child to be created for "parts". Donor children are often referred to as "savior siblings"‚ "spare part sisters"‚ or "bred to order brothers".
