Due to potential medical benefits, gay dads who have babies through surrogacy often arrange to receive pumped breast milk from the surrogates who helped them become fathers. Many surrogate are eager to help for the sake of the babies, and to help themselves adjust physically and emotionally to the end of the pregnancy.

  • What babies need is someone to care for them and nurture them. I'm sure that same sex parents will go above and beyond what most hetero couples can offer to their bio kids. Just because a child has a traditional "mother" figure this does not make them privileged or superior!! Gay couples are just as qualified and up to par with any hetero couple out there!!!

  • You're forgetting that MANY women today are opting to not breastfeed at all. Having a mother doesn't equate breastfeeding.

    If at all possible, I support breastfeeding, but in the long run what's more important is having at least one loving care giver.

  • Of course. Because pregnancy is not an easy thing. They made a sacrifice.

  • Guaranteed every gay couple that wants to adopt agrees with you, but sadly not every child can have a mother, and many may never have parents...

  • "Other states are considering legislation to ban the practice altogether." Of course they are. People are trying to help other people in a new way, and "traditionalist" fuctards aren't comfortable with it, so let's ban it, because that would be the right thing to do. Yeah!

    I think what those women do for other people is a great thing.

  • these kids don't remember being breast fed, so they don't feel any tenderness towards it when they're older. what you're talking about does more for the mother than it does the baby.

  • man i want twins

  • agreed

  • Much appreciated!

  • My apologies: I had to delete a long thread of unrelated personal attacks...

    You are welcome to make civilized comments on the issue, but this is not a forum for personal bashing of any kind.
