The parents didn't want a baby. They wanted an ornament. When you want a child, you are grateful to have one even if they're not perfect.

[lizziecross]

She “willingly agreed” to that disgusting contract in a situation where she was desperate. They took advantage of a desperate woman who probably did not have a lawyer look through the paper work.

[SignedWithBlood]

Those clients should be held accountable for child abandonment.

[NicolesMinnesotaOrganics]

Contracts like this should be illegal.
What a horrible thing

[MSR_Ma]

Someone would actually abandon their own child that they wanted to conceive because it’s premature?! Terrible.

[thatonedog]

They paid for this kid to be created. Then abandon him. Disgusting.

[Eckertainment]

"No obligation to adopt a premature baby" ಠ_ಠ IT'S THEIR CHILD!? how is that under adoption!?

[Nedread]

"Your boys would rather spend 100 Chicago winters in a shelter than a lifetime without their mother. Don't orphan them for this money." Ooof. Right in the heartstrings.

So the biological parents bring this kid into the world, but leave her out in the cold because she's not of perfect health. They're clearly a pair of rich elitist pricks who want a flawless child who they don't have to struggle taking care of. If I was that kid, one day I would take my folks for everything they're worth.

[minisnakali]

I feel so bad for the surrogate, honestly she and the baby deserved better.

[alize]

So they found a homeless woman, took advantage of her, and when she wasn’t being useful enough they ditch her and their biological child?! Maybe there’s a reason they couldn’t adopt…

[favouriteK]

I wonder how baby girl will feel in 20 years when she does an Ancestry kit and finds out her bio parents paid for her yet changed their minds because she was premature.

[sapphiresquire]

This makes me so angry! My sister and I were born two months early and our first month was spent in the hospital and it was rough, but 28 years later we are both alive and well!

[codybaggett]

What kind of monster (who can't even carry the child themselves) would draw up a contract like that? It's shameful to say the least.

[rebecaa]

That's so screwed up. Who gives up their baby just because she's premature? If that's how people are willing to be with their own biological child than they don't deserve to be parents at all.

[Sickandtired]

There should be laws against arrangements like this. The biological parents should be made to take responsibility regardless of the condition of the child because they chose to bring it into the world. People like this do not deserve children. People should be charged for abandoning babies in this way.

[Kay_The_Coffee_Weirdo]

Unfortunately this type of scenario is legal in certain places.

There was an Australian woman who was a surrogate to a Chinese couple. She was pregnant with fraternal twins. They took the boy baby back to China, while abandoning the girl. Surrogates have also been known to abandon any babies with medical problems.

[alyzu]

The "parents" should be forced to pay for everything for the baby, the young woman, and her 2 sons for the rest of their lives.

[yecly]

That alone should cancel their rights to be a parent. Killing or abandoning a child is just asinine and inhumane.

I hope this scene is not a reality.

[kiksocks]

32 weeks isn’t even that early that baby is likely gonna be totally fine
