Have you ever considered becoming a surrogate? Not a traditional surrogate where you supply the egg, but what is known as a gestational surrogate. There was a recent article in Time magazine about that interviewed among many other mothers, a mother of an ASD child. She said she was going to use the money (average $20 to $40k per delivery) for a therapy room for her child. What surprised me was that the parents didn't have any reservations about having an ASD mom as a surrogate because they felt that autism is mostly genetic anyway. (They were European, maybe that made a difference in the view of ASD?) That blew me away because I myself was not convinced that genetics play such a large role.
My husband would love it if I earned some extra money as a surrogate. What do you guys think?
