This is but one of the many reasons I am opposed to surrogacy. We now see pedophiles have discovered that this is a great way to acquire access and control of infant and child victims--while minimizing the chance of interference from a protective mother.

Australian father of surrogate twins charged with sexually abusing them
Thai-born children being cared for by man’s ex-wife as authorities consider plans for their long-term care, ABC reports

An Australian father of surrogate twins born in Thailand has reportedly been charged with abusing them.
The man and his wife entered a surrogacy arrangement with a Thai woman several years ago, the ABC reported on Monday. The Thai mother was told of the abuse allegations in June 2013.
The man has been charged with indecent dealings of a sexual nature with the children while they were under 10. He has also been charged with possessing child abuse material but denies all the allegations, the ABC says. He faces court later this year.
After the couple returned to Australia with the twins, their marriage broke down. The children are now being cared for by the man’s ex-wife and Australian child welfare authorities are considering plans for long-term care, the ABC reported.
Surrogacy arrangements in Thailand have come under scrutiny because of the case of baby Gammy, a surrogate-born boy with Down’s syndrome whose Australian parents left him behind. The Thai government is considering legislation to ban the practice.
Thailand and Australia are working out a transition process for an expected 150 Australian couples and Thai surrogate mothers expected to give birth over the next year.

Biological dad of Thai surrogate twins charged with 18 counts of indecent dealing, child pornography (Australia)
UNNAMED DAD. One of the many reasons I'm suspicious of surrogacy.

Biological father of surrogate twins born in Thailand charged with 10 counts of indecent dealing and child pornography
The Daily Telegraph September 02, 2014 8:54AM
THE biological father of surrogate twins born in Thailand has been charged with 10 counts of indecent dealing and possession of child pornography.
The NSW man, aged in his 50s, and his older now ex-wife became parents to twins after their 23-year-old Thai surrogate gave birth several years ago. The revelation follows controversy surrounding West Australian couple David and Wendy Farnell, who had surrogate twins in Thailand and were accused of abandoning one, baby Gammy, because he had Down Syndrome.
In the NSW case, according to an investigative report by Nine’s A Current Affair, once the couple had arrived back in Australia the man struggled with fatherhood and the marriage ended soon after, with his ex-wife taking sole custody of the children.
Police will allege the man began sexually abusing the children from the ages of four to five years. He will appear in NSW court in December.
ACA claimed the woman was in hospital and had no other option but to ask her ex-husband to care for them in her absence.
The man also faces charges of possession of 53 child pornography images. He has denied all charges and will appear in court in December.
The Thai surrogate mother, now 30, — who has two children of her own — said her mother was paid $7000 through a Thai agency, which is about half the normal rate.
For legal reasons, the gender of the twins cannot be revealed.

DASTARDLY DADS FROM THE ARCHIVES (Easton, Pennsylvania - 1995)
Even when you're a single dad who paid $30,000 so you could own your own baby, it's hard to put up with all that crying, don't you know. Back in 1995, custodial dad JAMES ALAN AUSTIN pleaded guilty to 3rd-degree murder for beating his crying infant, who was born to a surrogate mother.

A bachelor who paid $30,000 to have a baby by a surrogate mother, then beat the crying infant, pleaded guilty Monday morning to third-degree murder.
James Alan Austin, a 26-year-old bank analyst, wiped away tears with his shackled hands during the hearing in Easton, Pa.
Austin could have faced a possible death penalty if convicted of first-degree murder. Instead, he faces up to 30 years in prison; no sentencing date was set.
