baby-selling

Read a random definition: SYD

A quick definition of baby-selling:

Term: Baby-selling

Definition: Baby-selling is when someone gives or receives money or something else in exchange for a baby. This is against the law in all states. However, it is okay for adoptive parents to give money to a birth mother to help with pregnancy-related expenses. Baby-selling is also called baby-brokering or baby-bartering.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Baby-selling refers to the act of exchanging money or something else of value for a child. This practice is illegal in all states. However, it is not considered baby-selling if prospective adoptive parents pay for pregnancy-related expenses of the birth mother.

Examples:

  • A woman offers to sell her newborn baby to a couple for $10,000.
  • A man promises to give a childless couple a baby in exchange for a car.
  • A birth mother receives financial assistance from adoptive parents to cover medical bills and other pregnancy-related expenses.

The first two examples illustrate the illegal act of baby-selling, where money or something else of value is exchanged for a child. The third example, however, is not considered baby-selling because the adoptive parents are only providing financial assistance to the birth mother for her pregnancy-related expenses.
