this is the new trend

Wed, 01 Oct 2008 17:37:44 -0700

it appears the new trend is to sucker a guy into giving you is sperm and then hitting him up for child support if things don't work out as you planned.

Beware

And even more questions -- fewer answers

How about the birth parents of an adopted child, can the adoptive parents go after them?

Many Questions - Few Answers

This is a slippery slope... What about egg donors? Can the woman then go back to the donor and ask for child support? How about if the egg and sperm was donated – could there be potentially four potential parents? Many questions, few answers...

I never thought it was a possibility that gay couples would ever be able to legally marry. While it may seem as if it has taken too long for it to happen I think we are at the tipping point with the nation. In very little time it will be legal everywhere in the US. Soon after that we will be asking ourselves how we could have never allowed it in the first place.

I know there are a lot of happy people at my blog

Great News!!!

I am a New York State resident who was married in Canada a few years back because at the time, Ma. would only marry state residents.

Congratulations.

I have actually started a memoir of my life as a married lesbian.

Making the right change

It's good to see that parents are noticing what their teens are doing. The hard part is knowing how to approach their teens about the issue at hand. Teen's friends can influence more than the parents can. Parents do have options available to them for help with their teens and approaching the issue.

www.adoption.com and www.Parent-Profiles.com are still doing business with families from California. Based on the previous lawsuit, Adoption Profiles, LLC and Adoption Media, LLC were banned from conducting business in California if they would not allow same-sex couples to use their service.

Thanks for the update. I called Lambda Legal...

GO FIGURE!

That confirms my beliefs,

That confirms my beliefs, it's getting harder and harder to be a parent these days. Kids face many risks and many temptations, school is not a safe place anymore and that's because it has become a target for drugs. How can a parent control that?

KICKASS!

lesbian couple in New York

In my opinion E.T. should be held accountable to support the child. They wanted the child. She inseminated vials of sperm into her partner. She cut the umbilical cord at the child's birth and cared for the child until they broke up. It's E.T's responsibility to help provide support for that child. She wanted the child at the time and did what ever was necessary to have the child. The courts should order her to pay back child support.

yikes!

As a lesbian mom, this is so awful to read. It really does make us look bad! When we considered a known donor, we brought up in our first conversation that we'd legally terminate all of his rights and responsibilities. We didn't want him liable for child-rearing or child support, and we didn't want him demanding any custody (or his conservative parents).

We wound up going with an unknown donor through a clinic for these reasons. Our baby has 2 parents who she lives with, and no shananigans among multiple "parents". (I know some enlightened souls can navigate 2-mom-one-donor-daddy or 2-moms-2-dads situations, but I also knew pre-conception that I am not one of those souls!)

Just say NO!!

After this they couldn't pay me enough to danate.
I think after there aren't any more donors the courts
may change the laws and snuff this out.

Yikes

This is a good heads-up so that other donors don't fall into these circumstances. Don't donate unless you've got legal representation! Get the paperwork out of the way before you hand over your donation.
