Whether to get an abortion or not WAS her choice to make. It's her body and still her right to decide what to do with it. No surrogacy contracts can force a woman to have an abortion if she doesn't want to, or to keep a pregnancy when she wants to get an abortion. I don't feel too comfortable about the choice she made to give the baby up for adoption. It was probably necessary due to the baby's medical needs and she obviously doesn't have the money to cover that. But perhaps she could have let the intended parents meet the baby and see if they'd change their mind, and give her up if they didn't.

I don't condemn you because while your confusion and misguided moral compass has murderous implications, the average human has very little capacity to understand the incredibly enormous difference between something being of good moral value, and something seeming like it has this value only because it seems like mostly everyone else thinks so. And so I blame you along with each and every individual who has allowed this pathetic and unpalatable way of thinking to spread all over like a disease.

Perhaps she thought about it during the rest of her pregnancy and ended up deciding that it was for the best that way?

The surrogate is a money hungry liar who kidnapped a baby because in the state they were already in she wouldn't have been considered the mother since the contract she signed was legally binding in that state so she left and sold the baby because she didn't want her either.

It depended on what state she was in at the time of the birth whether or not the baby was the surrogate mother Krystal Kelly was the baby's legal mother.

Krystal Kelly as a single mother was unable to care for the child's expensive medical needs but she did find an adoptive family who wanted to. The original intended parents had said they did not wish to have this child. The baby was featured in the video while she has abnormalities and certainly by now has had many surgeries to correct them the baby was not suffering.

I dont blame the parents. Its not their fault. They didnt ask for this. Its sad but there is no one to blame in this story except the surrogate.

Yentl Van Breugel human beings suffer during abortion too, if they are at the gestational stage to see the disabilities this baby had, the baby was old enough to feel pain. Certainly everyone doesn't have the time/room/money to provide for a disabled child. For some reason, however, there are thousands of people who adopt these children and don't think of them on a level of dogs or cats to be terminated at will, for health reasons. I realize that even completely normal human babies are terminated for any reason though. I think disabled people who see this story would be surprised that so many "normal" people think their parents have a right to end their lives, shouldn't have the right to pursue happiness

And this is why you have lawyers and a very detailed contract with situations like this.

[@momozola6635]

Leaha Rene While this woman is clearly disingenuous & selfish, the state can't force her to abort the child that she is carrying. The ethical choice in this situation would have been to follow the contract that she agreed to, but I think people that are using surrogates need to be mindful of the fact that the surrogate is carrying the baby & she will be susceptible to the hormonal changes & the bonding that comes from carrying a child. I don't think this happened in this situation, since the surrogate had no problem aborting for a higher price, but again, the state can't force her to abort & people hiring surrogates need to be cognizant of this fact & understand that a clause forcing the mother to abort in certain situations would not be enforced in the U.S.

Also this baby had organs growing in the wrong places, two malfuntioning spleens, and NUMEROUS heart-problems TO NAME A FEW of the things that was wrong with her including a problem with her BRAIN. I can't say I blame the biological parents for wanting an abortion so the child wouldn't SUFFER. The surrogate is a bitch who breached the contract with the parents, ran away, refused to accept 10 000 dollars for taking the abortion (saying it was against her reliogon yet that she'd do it for 15 000 before changing her mind again) and then she gave the baby up for adoption because she couldn't afford to raise the child herself (money was the reason she became a surrogate in the first place). I am happy the baby is with someone who'll actually care for her, but the baby COULD have gone back to the biological parents, but for STUPID reasons they can't have her back. Despite the donor-egg the biological father is still the biological father! And they WANTED her back too!

[@lindachristiansen1652]

MovieManiac33 I meant that it's better to abort a child before they're capable of feeling pain, rather than forcing them to live with it after birth. Can you honestly imagine what kind of life this child now has? And still say the surragate did the right thing? I honestly can't. Also, I'm not going to pretend to know what went through the surragate's mind during all of this and i'm not going to re-watch the video just for that. At the time i did however get the impression that she only kept the baby for money. I admit now that i may have been overly judgemental, but that doesn't change the fact that i don't agree with her decition not to have an abortion. That baby has so many medical-problems that i can't imagine he/her still being alive, or what kind of life he/she lives through if they are. And honestly, since you sort of brought it up, i'm uncertain about topics such as people who order aid to die because they can't live with whatever medical problems they have, but those people at the very least make that decition for themselves. I don't know how old this child would be by now, if their alive at all, but if the adoptive parents are keeping him/her alive UNNECESSARILY just for their own sake then maybe they should start thinking about what they would've wanted if they were in this child's situation.

[@lindachristiansen1652]

I still stand by what i said, but i know it might not have come across the way i wanted to so if it's easy to misunderstand i apologize for that. I'm not going to change my mind about disagreeing with the surragate's final decition about not aborting the child, but i doubt you're going to change yours either so i won 't waste my time. Goodbye P.S. I feel like i should explain that i wrote what i did based on my habit of expecting the worst which in this case is that the child is dead or in a vegetative state only kept alive by artificial life-support or something. It's not logical, i know, but that's what i'm expecting.

Linda Christiansen so you are saying that your parents could kill you without your consent if you faced severe compliactions like this. after all the only difference between a fetus and the people in the comment section is that it cant voice out what is its decision.

[@LaurenRMann7]

I agree with the parents.

[@zoecarter8340]

Linda K. I strongly disagree. It’s murder to kill an unborn child.

Zoe C Women can do whatever they want with their bodies.

[@Longsotoad]

Zoe C Its not a child. Its a fetus.

[@thatgirl8036]

Zoe C its murder to kill an 'unborn' child. Its not alive, its not born, its not murder.

[@adrianna986]

Zoe C Would you rather have this child live with many disabilities and never be normal?

[@DR-cr3zo]

I feel really sorry for the parents. They have a child in the world which they didn't want to be here. So complicated and sad.

[@sometimessnarky1642]

Kinda suggests they weren't supposed to have children doesn't it? I mean...they couldn't have one inside the real mother so they bought a womb to bake the cake and the batter was spoiled. Sometimes you shouldn't choose science over God. Sometimes there's a really good reason why things happen.

What a vile wicked woman this surrogate is. To hurt the parents like that
