As I have been discussing previously, many Hollywood stars that can be best described as mature moms are either using in vitro fertilization or IVF (many people suspect that Nancy Grace, Marcia Cross and Jennifer Lopez underwent assisted reproductive treatment or ART) or adopting. A new option, that is very controversial due to its ethical implications, is surrogate mothers. But for many parents that is the only option.

One of these parents is Broadway actress and Dancing With The stars contestant Marissa Jaret Winokur and her husband Judah Miller. Due to a previous cancer, she cannot get pregnant and that was the only option. Obviously, to find a surrogate mother in the United States is extremely complicated and expensive and that is why poor countries like India are offering options for foreigners.

Desperate women who are mired in abject poverty are willing to become surrogate mothers in the hope of making some money (most of the money is still kept by businesses that do the selling and provide the medical support) but as long as you are willing to deal with the ethical issues (and I am hoping that you will do something for these women beyond what you pay to the business owners), it is something to look at.
