Many couples who are infertile or at risk of having children at an advanced age are inclined to give birth to their babies via surrogacy. Admittedly, not only can it fulfill someone’s intense desire, but surrogate mothers can acquire considerable income. Mutually beneficial as it seems, the challenges cannot be neglected. From where I stand, surrogacy should be prohibited. First and foremost, surrogacy, another form of the commercialization of pregnancy, degrades infants to merchandise. The legalization of surrogacy makes sterility more intolerable than ever and sends the demand for children through the roof, stimulating a procreative market which is increasingly prosperous. Furthermore, it is surrogacy that inevitably results in ethical dilemmas. A quintessential instance should be cited that the relationship between surrogate mothers and children is of complexity to define, which contributes to the confusion of ethics. Additionally, surrogacy exerts deleterious effects on surrogate mothers, both physically and mentally. With multiple pregnancies, they have more complications and mortality of preterm birth. Moreover, required to relinquish their maternal rights, they suffer the trauma of losing their spiritual sustenance. Consequently, fraught with such concerns, surrogacy undeniably remains outside the realm of the ethically permissible. Therefore, from my perspective, surrogacy should not be legalized.
