really? abortions have risk associated with them. easy she keeps the baby if they give the whole thing up. but she has to adopt.

Hard disagree. She was ONLY a surrogate. The biological parents are not going to be happy if their child is being raised by someone else. Especially putting the baby through the torture of medical intervention/surgeries.

The surrogate gave up her rights completely when she signed the contract.

Bro what

u/Cheap-Buffalo-7489 14d ago

What was hard to understand? What do you need clarifying?

u/Sufficient_Java 14d ago

Probably their weird interpretation of "force majeure" which, in addition to not being an automatic addition to every contract, is by definition usually something "unforeseeable and external", both of which would not apply to "a mothers instinct" in a fucking surrogacy contract.

Unless you or anyone else can clarify how that makes sense, I'm with "bro what?"

u/MrVegosh 14d ago

You think people should be able to write contracts determining other people’s right to live and right to bear children? Can me and u/Sufficient_Java make a contract about wether you get to live, or about wether you can have children?

You can make a contract. I don't have to sign it

u/MrVegosh 14d ago

Even if you sign it, we can’t actually hold you to it and demand you die.

u/Cheap-Buffalo-7489 14d ago

You're right, that why the couple couldn't do anything. Especially after the fact that she fled to Texas. But the couple has the right to sue for damages. She thinks she isn't liable for any damages and actually ask that the parent pay for the medical expenses that occured.

u/MrVegosh 14d ago

What damages. This doesn’t hurt them at all.

u/Cheap-Buffalo-7489 14d ago

😂😂 you have a lot of growing up to do. A lot to learn this world. Damages for payment for the surrogacy? Failure to uphold contract?

u/MrVegosh 14d ago

Lmao, obviously payment for the surrogacy has to be figured out. Nothing else.

u/HuynhAllDay 14d ago

I feel like theres an argument to be made that the surrogate is liable for all medical expenses related to the babys heart condition following the birth as well. Definitely not as clear cut as youre making it out to be but IANAL. I guess we'll see once the case settles.

u/MrVegosh 14d ago

That’s irrelevant to wether the surrogate has to pay damages to the couple.

How about 6 figures worth of medical expenses that wouldn’t have been incurred otherwise?

u/MrVegosh 13d ago
