RTE Programme on surrogacy.

I didn't watch it.

Surrogacy for financial gain has been described as rent a womb, but for some people it is the only option to have a child.!

True, but a 'right' to have a child shouldn't supercede all other considerations. In this situation the couple's feeling that they were entitled to have a baby together seemed to override any considerations about exploiting vulnerable women, aborting the third foetus,and bringing the children into a potentially messy situation where their legal status is uncertain, it will be difficult for them to ever find their natural biological mother, and their father and mother will be in their seventies by the time they are sitting their leaving certificate.
