It sounds like people saying that abortion should be legal because the child wasn’t wanted.

"Abortion should be legal because the child wasn’t wanted" ...

...was always a bogus argument. Because somebody wants the child. Adoptive parents want the child. Grandma wants the child. A child wants his own self: that counts too, doesn't it? And Almighty God wants the child.

Adoption is good, because what impels it is the need of the child who is in a sad or tragic situation of not having his own natural mother and father.

Surrogacy is wrong because it creates the situation of a child not having his own natural mother and father. Surrogacy deliberately and by plan creates a child in a state of orphanhood; or, even if it's using the sperm of the legal father and the ovum of the legal mother, through the rented body of the hired gestational "unit," it's not orphanhood but it's predicated on fractured motherhood.

Feminists used to insist that a woman can't be just a baby-making machine. What are they saying now?
