Interviews with surrogacy children, their gay parents, egg donor, surrogate and doctor

Excerpts from a "Frontline" report by Portugal's main TV channel on USA surrogacy. The program follows a gay NY couple with 11 year old twins from surrogacy, and a rare interview with the kids about their feelings about having been born through surrogacy and having two fathers. The program also shows a meeting of prospective parents at the Men Having Babies support group at the LGBT Center in NYC. Subsequently it interviews an egg donor and a surrogate at the CT Fertility clinic, and shows Dr. Doyle performing an egg retrieval and an embryo transfer. Very informative. Mostly in English - with Portuguese subtitles. The full 30 minute report (much of the rest is in Portuguese only) can be seen at http://www.rtp.pt/play/?tvprog=25508.
