CWN Editor's Note: The Supreme Court of Spain has ruled that surrogate motherhood is “contrary to public order and offends against “the rights to physical and moral well-being of the pregnant woman and the child, and respect for their dignity.”

“Surrogacy violates the moral well-being of the pregnant woman and the child, who are treated as things up for sale, deprived of the dignity proper to the human being,” the Supreme Court said.
