About this video

“I don’t know how surrogates can give their child away.

I’d never be able to!”

Why do we need to debunk this idea?

Most surrogates don’t feel as if they were giving away their child, because they are carrying a baby for other people who cannot do so. They are not giving away their child. They are simply handing the child to their parents!
