Pardesi, be realistic, Indian women who offer themselves for surrogacy are hardly healthy. Average Indian woman is anaemic and her body resources get depleted by repeated pregnancies and miscarriages. Their diet is hardly balanced, their menfolk shirk responsibility, so they have to work hard. Being surrogate mother means another way to make them less healthy. Ideally, a woman should have next child after three years. It is not about making the childless couples happy but it's about reducing poor women to baby-producing machines, which is exploitation.
