Massachusetts House Unanimously Passes Bill to Allow Women to Sell Their Babies to Highest Bidder
The Massachusetts House has unanimously passed a bill that would allow women to sell their babies to the highest bidder.
The bill passed under the guise of LGBTQ rights.
Under the state’s current laws, paid and traditional surrogacy is permitted — but for traditional surrogacy, the would-be “parents” must adopt the baby and, therefore, pass a background check. Additionally, at least one of the parents must be related to the infant.
Live Action explains:
However, adoption protects children from abuse due to the regulations that are involved in the process. There is research on the negative outcomes for children who live with non-biologically related parental figures. One study found, “In studies across a wide range of cultures… [t]he single best predictor of child abuse is the presence of a stepparent in the home.
