Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Gay couple in legal fight with Thai
surrogate over baby
A bit complicated issue here. A gay couple wanted
to have a Thai woman give a birth to one of the pair’s biological baby. The
surrogate mother received money for her labor and handed the baby girl to her
father. The gay couple had been happy with the new family member until they
heard that the surrogate mother wanted the baby back. She claims that she wants
the baby back because she has missed her so much and also declared that the
biological father and his husband are not an ordinary couple.
Is this just one of the common problems of subrogation
or a matter of same-sex parental right? As more countries are recognizing the
legal right of same-sex couples, this may not be just an individual case.
Enjoy reading and learning about this
recent legal battle over a parent-ship.
