New forms of parenting, surrogacy, a possiblity

Armando Correa, who is the director of a prestigious Hispanic magazine speaking about his experience of parenting.

 After Ricky Martin announced he had fathered by unconventional means and after the publication of countless photos where you see their children happy, now the Cristina show touches on the issue of surrogates and couples who have paid large sums of money by having a child. Do not miss this program on Monday December 21 at 10PM / Center for Univision.

Armando Correa and his experience: 

Armando Correa, editor of People magazine in Spanish, tells the story of how he became a father: "This woman surrogate and donated an egg. The baby was fertilized with my sperm, so this girl is biological and legally my daughter", said the proud dad as he introduced his daughter Emma. 

"Emma does not have a mother, she has two fathers and so we tell her." said excited Gonzalo Hernandez, Emma’s other father and Armando’s couple. 

“We have eight frozen embryos and ova donors told us that if we do not have more children, we must destroy them,” said Armando. It's not that like an abortion? Cristina asked. 

I am father and I can not give my daughter what a mother could," said Sebastian Exposito, a single father who paid two women to help him having his daughter. "The adoption of a child for a single dad or a gay couple is almost impossible." 

A couple could not conceive since four months before the wedding her uterus was removed: "The only way of having children was subrogation, and we did. Now, thanks to that woman we have a family." Said Lorraine and Victor Villalpando excited.  

Frank Pardo and Ricardo Joaquin are a couple legally married in the State of California, who claim that having used the services of a surrogate mother to have her triplets was wonderful: "One of my greatest sorrows of being gay, was not to be a father. I wanted to have a family and wanted to thank God for this medium could achieve, "said Frank.

 "You can create a perfect embryo in a lab, but that the embryo becomes a baby is only in God's hands," said Armando Correa, who is now expecting twins to come to the world through a woman who donated her eggs, and a surrogate mother.

Cristina presents a program rather than a scientific or moral, love and understanding.
