I also agree that maternity leave is vital to the babies development as it has missed out on the bonding that happens with its natural mother while still in the womb.
Well, since the baby doesn't 'feel' the bond while in a woman's womb, so the maternity would be just for the mom's benefit?

During the surrogate pregnancy, the child is bonding with the rent - a-womb, her habits, her voice, her diet etc. Then once born, the baby has to re-bond with the natural (but new) mother.
The comfort of a mother's voice is not as effective if the baby has never heard the mother's voice before.
It's all a rich tapestry I'm sure. ANYway, cudos to people with the financial means to raise a child getting one, and cudos to the woman who have fertile wombs putting them to good use.
Aside from how odd it may seem, I think surrogate mothers are a great idea. Though I acknowledge I am grossly unaware of the psychological effects this may have on the woman/children involved.

Well, does it really matter when parenthood is more of a 'conditioning' than biological?
I've seen adopted kids have way better parents than biological ones, if you understand what I'm trying to get at

I absolutely do. That's why I am all for surrogate mothers. Let the people with the financial means and honest desire to raise children get them.

absolutely
I would also like to point out that the sex of both parents seeking surrogate mother shouldn't be an issue too
