I imagine (considering I have no experience in this field) that sperm donors are a simple lot. Give ‘em a dixie cup and leave ‘em alone. But what happens when the sperm donor is ordered by a judge to pay child support? Which is what occurred to William Marotta when he contributed his sperm to a lesbian couple, Angela Bauer and Jennifer Schreiner.

I heard about this on the radio recently…I think it was Mark Steyn discussing it….strange…someone donated freely both his time and a part of himself only to be told he now has to financially support the results of that particular union…wow..having some fun has a price….well, Navy One what philosophers say is true…nothing in life is free; there’s always a price to be paid, one way or the other….. oh, Happy 2013….k
Rather than pay child support, I’d just sue for custody of the child.
I’m thinking there should have been a clause about this in the pre-nup.
Kris: It is a strange story in that the two “ladies” are not looking for support.
Lou: Hmm, provided he has the ability, sure.
CP: That would have been smart.
The same has happened over here, which created a severe shortage of voluntary donors. Though I am available on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday (but only after 10:00 hrs).
I believe there is a test case going through the (excuse me while I yawn and roll my eyes skywards) ‘European Rights Courts’ in Strasbourg; for the child’s right to know who donated the ‘anonymous’ birth sperm to the fertility clinics!
Science gone mad.
Yours Aye.
You may want to read this. This could be a little trickier than some might imagine.
Oh wow, I am no longer available on the dates mentioned…
Aye.
Oh and Ex Bootneck,,,read up on the differences between science & scientism which isn’t science just an appearance of it….Cheers….it’s lunchtime here and I’m engaging in the imbibing of low calorie Corona with lime and it’s still the holidays…don’t worry, I just finished my first mile and a half….k
EB: Rgr, you certainly are willing to be flexible. In all meanings of the word.
Kris: Coronas? Is that legal?
