Some people believe this qualifies as human trafficking, while others consider the existence of this technique a blessing that helps families have children of their own.
I am more eager to read your opinions than to give my own point of view on this. In theory, it sounds good to help a family dealing with infertility or other medical issues. On the other hand, I have conspiracy theory style thoughts about human farms.
I am uncomfortable with it. But not because of conspiratorial reasons. More because of what it says at human attitudes and humanity.
I think there's a limit to the degree with which we should try to exert control over nature. But I can't fully justify my feelings about it, just yet.
It is a bittersweet mix of feelings. If I look at it from an innocent perspective, I think of people close to me who long with all their hearts to be parents; eighteen months ago, they lost their baby with only two months left until the due date and both of them have medical issues that make conceiving difficult. I believe that if they had the chance to have a child through this method, they would likely do it.
Others might say it is better to adopt because there are many children without homes who need love; while that is true, adoption is not that simple.
I had never heard of this topic.
I don't.
I believe all kinds of hidden stories exist in this world, and this could be just one more of them.
For families unable to have children, this obviously represents a possibility where none existed before. It is a subject that can lead in many different directions.
