She went to someone who had just had a baby in Wisconsin and paid her off. Her husband had no clue about how the whole situation came about. <BR/><BR/>It is also different because the baby was purchased... like you would buy a car, computer, or groceries. When a surrogate mother is involved you are basically paying for the expenses she incurs rather than for a product. I am sorry... you don't buy children like you do produce at a farmer's market. Comparing the two simply doesn't mesh. <BR/><BR/>Also, you can't say that the ends justify the means. For example... You wouldn't kidnap a child that was in a bad home just because it needed a better place to stay. You follow the parameters set forth by the laws. You take the appropriate action. This child may very well have wound up in a loving home, but that doesn't mean you purchase them on the black market to get it.GCookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01126311999016318829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-465074527661463784.post-23902848975822076042009-02-22T10:09:00.000-06:002009-02-22T10:09:00.000-06:00HOw is this different from paying a surrogate moth...HOw is this different from paying a surrogate mother's expenses and giving her a stipend?<BR/><BR/>the child went to a family that loved her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
