I don't know the details of this case, but I think they should receive some kind of compensation. There 's a lot of debate on whether a fetus is human or not, but here we're talking about an embryo. An embryo doesn't even have human features yet, which is why I think it's pretty extreme to be sueing for wrongful death.

My take: Wrongful death seems a bit much. Especially considering these fertilization clinics usually create many embryos that never get used, and the couple should have been well aware of that fact,

so they would effectively be complicent.

But, it seems if the clinic didn't deliver on their promise, especially if it was due to negligence, I would hope the couple would get there money back at the very least.
