Dr. Doyle on panel on the moral aspects of surrogacy at the Men Having Babies Seminar - New York / 2011

Dr. Doyle along with other experts, gay parents, surrogates and an egg donors addresses ethical questions often raised regarding surrogacy and gay parenting. Among the moral issues discussed are the medical and psychological risks associated, and how they can be minimized; the motivations of the surrogates and are they being exploited; relationships between the parties during and after the journey; attitudes in the American society versus cultures where surrogacy is more controversial (such as France); how are children affected when they are raised without the presence of a female parent (as is the case when gay men have children with the help of a surrogate).
