New Surrogacy Bill In India

The close relative requirement is medieval. Hardly surprising though. The demonization of the infertile continues.

 

I too saw a discussion on this yesterday on YouTube. The point one person made was, if no option of surrogacy for them means(gay couple, single parent etc), adoption rules should be easy, now it is very tough as per him.
May be govt should educate more about all the steps/processes to adopt, helps some to take that step.
He also said to empower those poor women with jobs etc. The women said they are doing surrogacy to help their kids education, but i doubt, money once goes to woman's hand some necessity comes or H will snatch in some cases, money may not go for the real cause for which she did surrogacy mother role.

Also Govt should intervene and make that money available for a reasonable cause, what cause will go case by case.

 

If a couple is at that stage like going for surrogate option, usually they want a kid, if they get two, it is a bonus. And gender choice, couple will go healthy selection of embryos, and the last is gender choice. If one have that much choices at that stage (means tried all options and chose surrogacy option), I think natural conception would more likely to occur for that kind of couple.

 

Agree with Rihana.

Seems except for the close relative thing, seems a reasonable good decision. I had always been appalled after seeing a documentary which showed how surrogacy has been exploited in India. Infact I was thinking about the poor surrogate mothers and how the business minded are exploiting them.
