Question:
Psychological aspects of surrogacy
I and my husband are going to join surrogacy program – it is our only chance to have the child. We have studied and learned a lot of information. But we are still sitting on two chairs about moral and psychological aspects of surrogacy. We are considering psychological trauma that experiences the surrogate when she has to give away the child; and we are nervous about the situation: we want that everything be arranged properly, so that we won’t have to worry about it.

Answer:
Dear Kamilla! When we talk about moral and psychological aspects of surrogacy we should bear in mind that the topic of surrogacy is very delicate and should be regarded from various points of view. Regretfully, some mass media often present biased opinions and points of view that are superficial and some authors of publications hardly ever talked to a surrogate. Women who decided to take part in surrogacy program do it conscientiously, they know that the child they are going to carry genetically is related to other people and they are aware of the fact how long-awaited the child is for the people who asked for help. Surrogates believe that it is a right and honorable act. In this article you can get more information about surrogacy.
