As someone who has actually been a surrogate, twice, for infertile couples, I honestly can say it frustrates the heck out of me...... Girls leaving babies in trash cans and dumpsters and having more children just so they can collect a welfare check and won't take care of the children they were blessed with, and there are so many women out there who yearn to fill their arms.
Nothing can describe the joy on an infertile woman's face when she holds her newborn infant minutes after she was born, or a daddy's face as he cuts the umbilical cord of the daughter he thought he would never have. That little girl turned 4 Saturday, and I got the joy of telling her happy birthday, and of having her mom and dad thank me for carrying her for them, again, just like they do every year on her birthday.
I just don't get why people who can't take care of themselves think they can take care of a helpless child??
