    Honestly, what is keeping anyone with frozen eggs/embryos or whatever from claiming them as dependents based on the ruling?

      I totally fucking would. It would do one of two things:

      1. The Alabama state government would make me a multi-millionaire overnight.

      2. completely reverse the ruling.

      For real? I think you’d need to get them SSNs, which might be a problem without a birth certificate or even birthday. That being said, if you are responsible for nurturing them and keeping them alive I’d say that’s a clear dependency, so I think you’d have a bureaucratic nightmare but a fun court case.
