Twenty-eight years after it outlawed surrogacy contracts—contracts calling for a woman to carry and bear a child and then (along with her spouse, if any) renounce all parental rights to the child, turning the child over to another individual or couple for adoption, regardless of whether there is payment involved—New York State has turned in a different direction, allowing for legally enforceable surrogacy agreements, subject to strictures intended to address the numerous and diverse concerns that have long fueled opposition to surrogacy.
