[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe if you already have a child and can't have another than that's Mother Nature telling you to stop. Enjoy the child you do have. If you want another so desperately than look into adoption, there are thousands of children who need a home and it will cost the same as a surrogate, less if you look outside the US.

Why is this always the last possible thought that occurs to people? Rather than love the children they have or give an amazing opportunity to a child that would not otherwise have it, people want to spend a fortune to put someone else's body, emotions and psyche in an incredibly taxing position. It's amazingly selfish. [/quote]

1) Adoption is a long process, and can take many more years than surrogacy.
2) Contrary to popular belief, there are not that many healthy infants up for adoption. Some parents feel very strongly about having a baby, in no small part because of the issues that children who are adopted later in their lives often exhibit.
3) Not every parent who is prepared to raise a child from birth is equally prepared to welcome an 8-year-old with severe rage into their family. Not everyone is equipped to adopt a child with Down's Syndrome or FAS or etc. etc. etc. This doesn't mean they wouldn't be great parents, just that it is not something they have the knowledge, finances, time, or energy to deal with appropriately.
