Father of child

My first child was born with the help of science.

Be respectful. The fact that a lesbian couple did this and somehow got it legalized shouldn't indict the millions of hetero couples who may have never had children w/out this procedure.

Get a grip.

Who indicted millions of heteros?

This has nothing to do with heteros, hence my comment in jest.

My opinion is that it's not artificial insemination that is being made fun of, but the fact that a birth certificate is no longer a certificate of birth and parentage. It is now just a certificate listing the legal guardians of an individual.

I could give birth and list Santa Claus as the daddy. It means nothing as far as who the biological parents are.

Remember during childhood when every child wondered for a moment whether they were adopted and mom and dad pulled out the birth certificate to prove it to you? Well...over the years, the birth certificate has lost it's legitimacy as being evidence of one's true parentage. Now...it's just a document wherein the mother can list just about anyone as the father....or in this case...co-parent.

Sadly, heterosexual couples started this nonsense of conceving a child in a lab as if creating a life was a scientific process rather than a procreative mystical act.

Its not the child's fault - just like its not the child's fault if he is conceived in rape. The child should not be killed or maltreated because he was ill-concieved. But that does not excuse the selfish act of the parent(s).

His parents demanded he be custom made in a lab - with some siblings created as spares that have already been killed off or frozen indefinitely.
