Is reported, that a Thai 21 years old,hired by an Australian couple as a surrogate mother,gave birth to twins.One of the twins was born with Down Syndrome.Then the couple collected the healthy baby (a girl)and off
to Aussie land,leaving behind the Down Syndome baby.
My question is,would you do the same,as the Aussie couple did????

The couple on the return to Australia claimed, haven't been told,by the Doctor,that the surrogate mother was going to have twins.

The surrogate mother is Thai, the baby with Down's Syndrome looks Asian.

I wonder what cultural origin the biological parents are and whether this impacted upon their alleged decision. I have a sneaky feeling there may be more shame attached to disabled children in some cultures than others.

The mother also didn't carry the children herself and that may have had an impact upon the bonding process for the biological parents. Bonding doesn't happen straight away for many parents for a variety of reasons. Personally, I think a non-critical, supportive approach facilitates bonding, not global condemnation.

Whether it's true they didn't know of the second baby's existence, whether they did know of his existence and asked the surrogate mother to abort him at 7 months, whether they abandoned him, or whether the now shut down surrogacy agency played a role, the 'story' does make juicy media reporting. The media reporting is also scant and conflicting. I don't think it's ethical to be making judgements because it serves a purpose for us to go "Ooh aah, aren't they evil?"

I really hope all concerned will get the help and support they need in the best interests of the children.

Oh, I've just thought. Do we know that the child was well enough to travel, do we know that the parents had the resources to transport the second twin, do we know if their visas allowed them to stay longer...? How do we know truthfully that the parents didn't take the one child home that they could while they made arrangements to take care of the critically ill child (heart defect requiring surgery and lung infection according to the reports)? How do we know that the surrogate mother isn't selling her 'story' to the press because she's desperate for the money to feed her own kids?

We simply don't know the full story, ergo, it is not ethical to make pre-judgements.

Do you know that, Chris?

Because if you don't know that to be true, that's a very, very dangerous thing to say and it ain't funny at all, my friend.

God darn you and your contrarian attention-seeking. Would it kill you to be not so painfully predictable. When you're not debasing the normal you're Humanising the monsters. And is there really no bottom to the depths that you will plunge in your attempts to be right where everybody else is wrong.

I learned years ago from watching/reading the news here in the USA that just because it's reported/printed in the media that 100% of it is false.That the media obviously finds ways to build up their readership.

Is there actual proof that the parents have abandoned the other twin? Probably not.

As for making the remark about the parent(s) being a child molester is not a good thing to say unless you have absolute proof.

The reports from the Aussie media say, was convicted 13 years ago. According to reports they knew,the surrogate was carrying twins. They found and they pay,for a surrogate mather. Those IFs you mantion in your post,according to my opinion ,don't hold ground. I see it this way. I pay for a child,via a surrogate,then i have to take my child home.-Now it happens to be twins,lucky me, instead of taking one home,i'll bring back home TWO.- What a happy mother i should have been,but NO i left the other behind because........."he has the Down Under SAyndrome".grin grin grin

So you would much rather pass judgement on someone you don't know and because if the media prints/reports it then it has to be true. Just because it's much easier then checking things out first.You don't have to be an expert to check things out.giggle

What's my judgement? In regards to the parents I don't have any.I don't know their situation.


As for me being smarter I don't claim to be.I just don't fall for the stuff that the media pulls just to make a buck off someone elses problems.And if 3.5 Billion choose to dote on everything the news medias are reporting/printing then it's obviously their choice.Especially when it comes to this case regarding one of the twins supposedly being left behind.

I asked you if you knew the father of the children was a convicted child molester, not whether you'd read it in the media.

I wonder, why would a child molester leave the golden opportunity to have an extremely vulnerable child who would find it more difficult to express himself under the guise of being super dad?

That doesn't quite add up to me.
