[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's an article about power imbalance and the cruelty and suffering that the rich can impose on those who have less.

My heart goes out to the surrogate.[/quote]

There’s certainly the power imbalance in that Bi has legal resources that the surrogate doesn’t have. Bi is clearly not mentally well and is abusing the legal process to harass this surrogate in a way only the rich can do.

But, I don’t feel sorry for the surrogate. She held allll the power when it came to that baby’s health. She decided to leave the hospital against medical advice. She decided not to tell the parents about the vaginal bleeding. She decided not to follow the doctor’s suggestion for follow up when her amniotic fluid got too low. She ignored the fact that fetal movement had stopped.

She also falsified reimbursements on childcare and house cleaners. She saw an opportunity to steal from the rich and she took it.

I don’t know if Bi can prove it, but it does seem most likely that the surrogate was partying at her DJ boyfriend’s New Year’s Eve rave and given the timeline, might have contributed to the prenatal problems.

The surrogate sounds like white trash, right down to the trope of a single mom with a biracial kid who has unfettered access (at age 7!) to an iPad with zero parental controls - thereby opening the door for a mentally unstable woman to text the child a picture of a dead baby.

Both of these women are problems. [/quote]

Bi is nuts, clearly.  But the surrogate made choices that undoubtedly contributed to the child’s death.  She had certain responsibilities under the contract and she disregarded them because she thought she could get away with it.  Now that she’s been caught, she’s playing the victim. [/quote]

You clearly know nothing about stillbirth. [/quote]

The surrogate LEFT THE HOSPITAL while she was supposed to be on bedrest following an apparent rupture of her membranes.  Are you suggesting that did not contribute to the stillbirth?[/quote]

The surrogate was given clearance by her doctor to briefly leave and take care of some practical matters for her long hospital stay. If the doctors hadn’t agreed it would be all over the chart that she left ama. [/quote]
