[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It as also heartbreaking to read that the surrogate of the baby girl had complications and needed a hysterectomy after giving birth. The article mentioned an issue with the placenta which has DNA from the parents. Shouldn’t the biological parents health histories have to be disclosed to surrogates so they know the complete risk.[/quote]

If a potential GC wants to know the medical history of the IPs, she can require that as a condition of entering into a surrogacy contract.  IPs, of course, are free to decide that they'd rather go with a different GC.  It is no one's business what a GC and IPs agree to in their private surrogacy contract.  [/quote]

You're spending a lot of time defending Cindy Bi. I am guessing you used a surrogate, too. [/quote]

Is it supposed to be embarrassing or somehow shameful?  [/quote]

In this situation- as outlined in the article, at least- yes, incredibly so. She paid poorer women to carry what turned out to be very risky pregnancies for them (which the author implies were risky, in part, because of plancental reasons which were genetic).  Makes you wonder why she didn't carry her own pregnancies.  43 is not THAT old to carry a pregnancy.  Plenty of women do it every day.  If you're 43 and healthy, and have embryos, choosing to implant them into a poorer younger woman in exchange for money, in my opinion, should be illegal.  Just like giving up your kidney in return for money is illegal.  I honestly don't see the difference and don't understand why hiring young women to incubate babies for cash payment is fine, but farming kidneys from people who are ready and willing to give them up, for cash payment, is not fine.

The article explains this.  It wasn’t because of her age.[/quote]

She don’t want to lose her size 0, and tiny waisted body.[/quote]
