"美國兩個母親爭奪親權"

美國佛羅里達州一對女同性伴侶取用其中一人的卵子，與捐精者的精子體外受精後，植入另一人的子宮內，生了一個女兒。孩子兩歲時，孕母帶著小孩不告而別。「另一個媽媽」透過私家偵探找到他們，並爭取親權。根據佛羅里達於1993年頒布的法律，認定懷胎九月的孕母，才是母親。然而，捐卵的母親與孩子具有血緣關係，因此這樁官司也引發各界辯論，並可能使州政府重新檢討法律規範。

對話範例：

(社會)Rita和Jasper在討論現代社會現象，一起來聽聽他們的對話吧！

Rita: 你知道去年在中國代理孕母變成一個很搶手的工作嗎？

Jasper: 對啊，因為很多人想生龍寶寶，但是可能自己不孕。

Rita: 嗯，科技進步造福了這些人。體外受孕也讓同性伴侶可以擁有小孩。

Jasper: 對啊，不過同性伴侶如果分手，處理親權的問題可就棘手了。

Rita: 對，真的很麻煩。如果能像電影《性福拉警報》(The Kids are All Right)裡的女同性伴侶一樣，能有溫馨的好結局就好了。

Jasper: 是啊，不過現實生活就是不一樣。

Rita: 嗯，時代真的不同了，法律也應該跟上腳步，保障兩個媽媽或兩個爸爸的權益。

Jasper: 說得好，不過我想台灣該踏出的第一步是讓同性婚姻合法化！

(International)Two Mothers Fight for Parental Rights in the US

A female same-sex couple in Florida took an egg of one of the partners, combined it with a sperm from a donor through in vitro fertilization, and implanted it in the uterus of another person, who gave birth to a baby girl. When the child was two years old, the surrogate mother who gave birth, left with the child. The other mother found them through a private detective and fought for parental rights. According to a Florida law promulgated in 1993, the surrogate mother who was pregnant for nine months is the mother. However, the mother who donated the egg is biologically related to the child. Consequently, the case has triggered public debate, and may possibly cause the state government to review their laws and regulations.

Dialogue Example:

(Society)Rita and Jasper are discussing modern phenomenon in society. Lets listen to their conversation!

Rita: Did you know that being a surrogate mother has become a popular job in China?

Jasper: Yeah, because many people want dragon babies, but they are infertile.

Rita: The improved technology has surely helped a lot of these people. In vitro fertilization has also allowed same-sex couples to have children.

Jasper: Right, but when same-sex couples break up, determining parental rights may be difficult.

Rita: True, it can really become a problem. Hopefully they can have a happy ending like the female same-sex couple in The Kids are All Right.

Jasper: Yes, but real life is different.

Rita: Yeah, the times are really different now, but the law should also keep up and ensure the rights of both moms or both dads.

Jasper:Well said. However, I think Taiwan should take the first step and legalize same-sex marriage!
