You're blaming the father for helping a couple realize their dream.Eh...id rather that money stay put and go to the child's current and future needs, to ensure that he or she grows up to be a lot smarter than the biological father.

no im not, he did a nice thing for this couple, now he has to pay? it wouldn't matter if it was a gay couple or a straight couple, it's beyond unfair. you saying this couple doesn't have the means to provide for a child, then why have one???Not sure why you'refor this man....a child can never have enough resources as far as Im concerned, and his dumb ass put himself on the hook for 18 years. Its about the child...you're turning this into some stupid gender angst bullsht. Do you.

but you know your opening up a lot of issues just walking into some strangers house and giving them a jar full of sperm its really not smart...I wonder if he was even paid for the sperm
I get that it kinda sucks for him, because this arraignment of child support was not the intent of the parties involved, but its hard for me to garner sympathy for someone who acted so dim-witted when it comes to such a serious matter. He could have went to a reputable and licensed sperm bank if he simply wanted to do something nice and legal, or he could have involved an MD to absolve himself of any legal responsibility.
He chose not to do any of these things, and somehow handing his seeds over to some lesbian couple in a motel w/ any due diligence seemed wise to him. Well, he and he alone made himself legally responsible for the child, so I look on the bright side that the child will now have more resources available for a good life, and perhaps the father will take an active role as well. Im not interested in crying over this guy because hes an idiot.
The couple could have done the same thing! Did he force them to use his sperm???? did he pour his sperm into her vagina??? Are you implying that, without his help, the couple couldn't provide for their child? I'm not saying it wasn't an ill-advised decision, I'm saying why is he the only idiot in this story? they sought out a random sperm donor on craigslist
, you can't get any dumber than that. He helped them out and got rope-a-doped into legal proceedings.
^^^ They could have easily went to a sperm donor instead of posting a Craigslist ad. how is that NOT underhanded? yet you believe he's the only slick one am i right?
now the court goes after him, that chicks not giving the money back. so she gets $$$ and the baby. Like i said it wouldn't matter if it was a straight couple, its stupid. you keep saying it's about the child, yet you dont know what type of life the baby would have w/o that money. seems to me like your assuming the woman can't provide a good life for her child. his lawyer was right, his client is vilified yet the couple is absolved of any wrong doing even though they were the one's who went looking for random sperm. <<<< How is that act not seen as shady?
i'm agreeing to disagree on this one breh.
