The Declaration of Casablanca says surrogacy exploits women and treats children as the objects of contracts between commissioning parties and surrogate mothers, urging a UN condemnation.
A surrogate mother is petitioning the Supreme Court to secure life-saving treatment for Baby Gabriel after his biological parents demanded she abort him at 24 weeks due to a heart condition.
Chinese tycoon Xu Bo has reportedly obtained more than 100 children through American surrogates, and the children have US citizenship even if they are raised in Communist China.
Of the surrogacy firm, the venue said, 'After learning what this entity does, we categorically do not want to enter into any cooperation with it or to rent it our training rooms.'
The commissioning parents’ attorney called his clients ‘loving parents’ while denouncing the surrogate who sought to protect the child as having interfered with the baby’s ‘medical care.’
McKenna West will take her case all the way to the US Supreme Court, if necessary, to secure custody of Baby Gabriel after his biological parents demanded an abortion because of a treatable heart defect.
