Think this case will become quite big worldwide. Some ethics issue. Who's wrong? Thai surrogate mother is believed to be very poor and took up the surrogate for the money. Now she is saddled with a unhealthy child. Australian couple is accused of abandoning the down syndrome child. They took the healthy one. Thai agency could also be faulted. World wide donations are coming in but how much can it help? http://www.smh.com.au/world/gammy-surrogate-mother-threatens-to-sue-australian-parents-20140804-1005fv.html Bangkok: The Thai surrogate mother of an abandoned baby boy says she will sue the Australian couple who left their son behind, challenging the child's father to appear with her on television. Pattharamon Janbua claims the biological father of the twins came to a Bangkok hospital after she gave birth six months ago and saw both children - the girl, whom he took home, and her brother, called Gammy, who has Down sydrome and is critically ill. But the West Australian parents have denied abandoning Gammy. The ABC quoted the unidentified father as saying a Thai surrogacy clinic doctor only told him and his wife about the girl.
