Should surrogate mothers have the same rights as adoption birthmothers?

I disagreed with 'pre birth orders'. I don't think it's right that a surrogate can be contactually obligation to hand a child over when it's born. When a pregnant women agreed to give a baby to a adoptee couple she has the right not to do so if she can't part with it after it's born. Even if the surrogate isn't the genetic mother I think she should still get that option. If DNA really trumps carrying and birthing a child then surely a egg or sperm donor can come along and take 'their' child off it's mother.Should surrogate mothers have the same rights as adoption birthmothers?
there was a similar case here (the uk) birth mother refused to hand over baby, (genetically was hers and the person who had hired her to be surrogate's husband)



she refused. court ruled thats she was the mother and doesnt have to hand the baby over. i disagree with surrogate births anyway
Traditional surrogates do have those rights, but gestational carriers (not her egg) don't and I don't think they should. Bottom line is that when the surrogate signed up, she likely took a barrage of tests, both psychological and physical, and was counseled extensively on what to expect when the baby is born and having to give it up. You agree to do it, the couple spends upward of $30,000 to get their baby, they should have a very strong legal leg to stand on when the baby is born if the surrogate tries to keep it. The baby has biological and legal parents, neither of which are the carrier, and I really don't think the carrier should have the right to change her mind. The baby should be with his or her actual parents.Should surrogate mothers have the same rights as adoption birthmothers?
It has nothing to do with who the mother is or what makes someone a mother, it has to do with keeping your word in your agreements. If I hire someone to build me a deck, they can't just build it and then decide that they want to take it home to their house because they spent so much time on it, it turned out great, and now they're attached to it and wish they had it their house. You have to keep your contracts, no matter the circumstances.......
no she made and agreement and was paid that's wrong for somebody to do that to a person who cant have kids and really want to, they came to you for help for you to do that is dirty

edit: thats the whole point of being a surrogate to have a baby for someone else and give them that baby its not yours at all you know that going in
I think you have a good point but personally I think surrogate mothers should be illegal. I think that surrogate mothers are like selling body parts, I don't think uterus, eggs or sperms should be for sale. There are too many unwanted children in the world- adopt.
i dont agree with this at all. why be a surrogate mother if you are going to keep someone elses baby. if you are someone like this then you shouldnt go into that kind of agreement ! disgusting !!!
