Slavery is forbidden. But in Georgia, there is a farm that keeps women for their eggs. Human trafficking is prohibited. But you can sell the child that grew in your womb, although your other children might be shocked. The German author Birgit Kelle says this is nothing less than child trafficking.

A few weeks ago, Birgit Kelle was in Czechia for the presentation of the Czech translation of her book on surrogacy (see text box below). The presentation was facilitated by the organisation Aliance pro rodinu. In the surrogacy market in Europe, the Czech Republic has a particular place. Kelle spoke there, answered questions and gave an interview afterwards.

“If you want to have a child, you go on the internet and find dozens of agencies. You pick one, contact it, and they make you an offer. They have different prices from which you can choose. The price depends on your wishes. If you want to have a guaranteed healthy child or a specific gender, it is more expensive.

Then they send you a catalogue where you can search for your favourite surrogate mother. If you don’t have your own eggs to use, they send you another online catalogue where you can search for the right egg donor. The surrogate mother is never pregnant with her own eggs.”
