More Australians are considering surrogacy as a means to having a child because there is a decline in the number of children available for adoption, whereas they can access assisted reproductive treatment (<a href="http://kiranivfgenetic.com/" rel="nofollow">ART</a>).<br /><br />Surrogate mother<br /><br />A <a href="http://kiranivfgenetic.com/" rel="nofollow">surrogate mother</a> is someone who conceives, carries and gives birth to a child for another person or couple (intended parents or commissioning parents). The surrogate mother agrees to give the child to that person or couple after the birth.<br />Ranbeer singhhttp://kiranivfgenetic.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654455663519806899.post-375823312450975802013-03-07T00:15:23.165-08:002013-03-07T00:15:23.165-08:00India offers clear grounds for Surrogacy Legalitie...India offers clear grounds for Surrogacy Legalities At Affordable Cost with best Surrogacy Procedure and IVF treatment you can think of.We have a very simple business model that keeps intended parents at the centre.Having the industry's most elaborate and exclusive Patient Care and Clinical Coordination teams with our Clinic, we provide you the smoothest and seamless surrogacy care you ever imagined in India.<br /><a href="http://www.selectsurrogacyindia.com/ivf/in_vitro_fertilisation_india.html" rel="nofollow">IVF Cost in India</a><br /><a href="http://www.selectsurrogacyindia.com/ivf_success_rates_mumbai.html" rel="nofollow">Cost of IVF in India, IVF Price in India</a><br /><a href="http://www.selectsurrogacyindia.com/surrogacy/gestational_surrogacy_india.html" rel="nofollow">Gestational Surrogacy Cost in India</a><br /><a href="http://www.selectsurrogacyindia.com/surrogacy/Surrogate_mother_delhi.html" rel="nofollow">Surrogate Mother India</a><br />selectsurrogacybloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14844039185570250959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654455663519806899.post-77292384792339934622011-08-04T03:51:50.103-07:002011-08-04T03:51:50.103-07:00The bottomline is that childless couples are despe...The bottomline is that childless couples are desperate for the unconditional love that only children can bring. They will resort to any reasonable method to get this. Asking them to stay childless just because you see it as "confused parentage" is cruel. People who are blessed "naturally" with many children will rarely understand the torment of the childless.Serenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654455663519806899.post-42690291051238135502011-08-04T03:45:29.029-07:002011-08-04T03:45:29.029-07:00Why is it exploitation if the woman in the develop...Why is it exploitation if the woman in the developing world willingly agrees to be a surrogate, in exchange for a large sum of money which will improve her life and that of her family? I am from the USA and I know many people who have gone through the overseas surrogate route. The fact is it is not easy for foreigners to adopt from third world countries like India. Their government makes it impossible for foreigners wishing to adopt. On the other hand, the same government promotes surrogacy as an alternate route, because they earn foreign revenue. <br /><br />The surrogates have to fulfil the exact same conditions as surrogates in the USA - this is done in order to ensure that they are not overburdened physically or their health put at risk. There are many safeguards for the women who act as surrogates. There is an age limit, they are screened, and they are not allowed to be surrogates for an infinite number of occasions.<br /><br />It is sad that these women are having to "earn a living" this way - on the other hand, depriving them of this will only leave them in poverty. Which is worse?Serenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654455663519806899.post-32351517506653223092011-08-04T03:41:27.306-07:002011-08-04T03:41:27.306-07:00You have misinterpreted me.

As I say above every child born by whatever means is infinitely precious in the sight of God and worthy of love, protection and care. <br /><br />And Christianity is hugely afirmative of adoption - in fact the whole Christian view of reconciled relationships with God is based in Scripture on an adoption model - ie when we become Christians we become God's adopted children. <br /><br />But, again as I say above, surrogacy is very different from adoption in that a child with confused parentage is being deliberately and intentionally created.Peter Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17222354018504253042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654455663519806899.post-31845574504370671102011-08-04T03:33:37.226-07:002011-08-04T03:33:37.226-07:00>> where children are brought up by parents ...>> where children are brought up by parents to whom they are biologically related within families<br /><br />So God does not care for adopted children who are brought up by those who are not biologically related to them? Goodness me - if this is what christianity teaches, then I'm glad I'm not part of its and your worldview.<br /><br />Have you considered that a lot of biological parents and other "biological" family members frequently abuse their own children, both physically and sexually? I suppose that is secondary, so long as they are "biologically related".<br /><br />I have news for you - it is not "biology" which creates bonds but love.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
