Problem: Attorney Matchum then drew up a contract in which Barbara agreed to (1) be artificially impregnated with John's sperm, (2) refrain from smoking or consuming alcoholic beverages during the pregnancy, (3) carry the child to term if medical evidence indicated it was healthy, (4) abort the fetus if medical evidence indicated it had major birth defects, and (5) turn over any and all parental rights to the Kuligs when the baby was born. John and Mary, in turn, agreed to pay (1) Barbara's medical costs and (2) a maintenance allowance of $8,000 per month during the time of the pregnancy and a three-month recovery period after the pregnancy.
What do you think of these contractual arrangements? Are they fair to both parties? Which, if any, of these provisions do you find objectionable? Why?
