Joint Oireachtas Committee on International Surrogacy
Issues relating to International Surrogacy Arrangements and Achieving Parental Recognition: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Selina Bonnie:
I could not speak to that. As a parent and a disabled person, I do not see disability or impairment as a negative to be avoided or abandoned or thrown away so I could not possibly understand how somebody could reject a human being just because of the person's perceived ability, future inabilities or health issues. We all have our unique abilities. Given the right support and nurturing, we can soar. We can be anything. Nobody can predict the future.
