This is probably worse than what the headline suggests.
The gay couple in the story, the Kivitis, were married. They had a child via surrogacy in Canada. The child is biologically theirs, however, the surrogacy makes the child âborn out of wedlockâ.
âThe Kivitis are each biologically related to their children. Under the policy, however, children born via gestational surrogacy and other forms of assisted reproductive technology (ART) are considered to be born âout of wedlock,â in the State Departmentâs wordsâeven if their parents, like Roee and Adiel [the Kivitis], are legally married. âThey basically take our marriage, and they say âIt doesnât mean anything. Your child was born out of wedlock,ââ Adiel said. âWe were there when she was born, she took her first breaths in our arms. Make no mistake: We are her parentsâwe are her only parents on her only birth certificate.â â
So you could be married and not have your children. Thatâs whatâs going on here, which is probably worse than what the headline is suggesting.
