These people have an unusual, up until now, legally untested, arrangement to be sure. The children are a reality and the mutual investment of time, energy, emotion is a reality as well.

Hopefully, we can all learn something valid and lasting.

Relationships are important.

This ‘family’ has a genuine bond together
- perhaps something that was in many ways undefined before.

Fortunately, they had a place to go to get it straightened out.
And so they did! Yehhhhhh!

-Whew!

This man sounds like a consistently present, available, supportive ‘father’. I doubt she could have chosen a better donor.

Anonymously, these kids would not have their father ‘figuring’ in their lives while growing up.

Their mother is a ‘homo’ (emphasis added) who also wanted to have children. In the US, a lesbian, or any other ‘fruit loop’, for that matter, can do that.

It’s not our business, zakimar. You wouldn’t like it if strangers stuck their noses in your private family affairs, I’m sure.

He would benefit from getting ‘off it’,
every so often – greatly!

Did you ever watch Jeff Dunham the ventriloquist? He has these dummy characters with ‘personalties’ – the whole routine. And at the end of the evening he packs them all up in a suitcase and heads ‘out’
- until the next gig.

Like that…

That a mind can get so twisted that it would extrapolate that the children “have no chance for a normal life” or having their lives relagated to joining the military (yuck!) or a career at McDonald’s or Wal-Mart (double yuck!) indicates a profound need for professional help or at least getting back on one’s meds.

I will read what you said and if I got the facts wrong I would like to apologize. I have to tell you though that ethically I still find this behavior repulsive. If you have the money to give to a child, you should give it. If you don’t have it, and can’t give it, it’s another story. A child deserves the best from the adults around them, financially, emotionally and intellectually. The only time money should not be given is when it is not there to give.

I agree with you. And I also wonder why anyone should have to be taken to court to help with the financial costs in raising a child in this circumstance. What any ugly way to treat a child.
