Should this child have been born?

[HairOfTheDog]

I think that the biological mother, Crystal, is an idiot.

She first said that she wouldn't consider an abortion because she was deeply religious. I could respect that. But, then when the donor parents offered her $10k to abort, she demanded $15k. When she didn't get that, she fled to a surrogate-friendly state and said she was going to keep the child, only to change her mind and say she was going to foster the child. She has no credibility to me. But, sounds like she does have the original $22,000 she received from the donor parents.

I can't answer whether this child should have been born or not, but I question the bio mom's motives. I do think this child is in the right hands with the unrelated foster parents. Crystal already has 2 children and no income. The donor parents have 3 children with some medical problems. I hope the foster parents have the time and love to cherish this child. Her medical problems are so severe, it will be a full time job parenting her for as long as she lives.

P.s. I do think that the biological mother has the right to decide whether to abort or not though, even as a surrogate. Her body.
