woops.

In this case, the complaint is that the kid wasn't born with a coathanger for a nose. Forget it, Howard.

Lets hope the child was born to Birkhead.

LOL

[dforest]

Whoops, missed it by one letter in the alphabet. Are they all alike?

[traditional1]

I think this could be a "hate crime", based on Conyer's newly introduced legislation.....

Although, they might want to do a DNA test on the gardener..

The couple says that they have been forced to raise a child who is "not even the same race, nationality, color ... as they are,"
They say that "while we love Baby Jessica as our own, we are reminded of this terrible mistake each and every time we look at her; it is simply impossible to ignore," the judge's decision said.

Poor child. Brought into the world by shallow people who look at her as a mistake.

[Tx Angel]

They say that "while we love Baby Jessica as our own, we are reminded of this terrible mistake each and every time we look at her; it is simply impossible to ignore,"

It's still her baby.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

I hope when the kid is old enough she can tell Mom and Dad what they can do with their bigotry.

[RoadGumby]

Just gotta say that, had they used the 'old-fashioned' method of creating a child, there would be no chance for the 'wrong sperm' to have been involved.

While there are cases where in vitro is needed for a couple, these two at least sounded healthy.

"I hope when the kid is old enough she can tell Mom and Dad what they can do with their bigotry."

Re-read the story and dont try to show you are more politically correct than the rest of us. They are only saying what is true - they entered a contract - the contract was not fulfilled by one party they are suing. They still care for this child - that is not the case - however it is not entirely their child (genetically). Save such comments for blacks who will not allow whites to adopt black children because of the color of their skin AND are supported by leftest state govt which supports such positions.

They do have a case for malpractice in some way, but the horrible things they have said about their daughter in court will find their way to her ears one day. Calling her a mistake, etc. I would have preferred it if they said that there was carelessness in the laboratory and the clinic needs to pay for their negligence, even though it got them their beautiful daughter and they wouldn't have her any other way. THAT would have been the right way to go about this suit. My G-d. That poor baby.

Also, I would like to see a wasteful taxpayer-funded study of all parents named Stern who choose "Howard" for their child's name and how that's working out.

[GOP Poet]

Exactly. Horrible, horrible thing to say about your own child. I would love that child with everything in me and thank God for her little life, which is a miracle. Would I be upset? Sure, but it would be initial and temporary. It would initially freak me out from the unexpected shock, but I would love that child with everything and teach them about the lovely God who gave them life and thank God for the opportunity. They choose invitro and there is always risk.

Would they have killed the child in the womb if they would have seen the color? Or attempted too? With an attitude like this I feel they would have. By the way, I don't feel it is wrong that they are suing. They have a legitimate gripe. But I would use that money in service of doing the right thing as God led me.

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

I am guessing if the parents had advance knowledge of the "monster" that was growing inside the mother, the baby would have been long aborted.

[HarmlessLovableFuzzball]

You should see 'Me, Myself & Irene' (Jim Carrey), you will get a good laugh.

Carlo Acosta, the non-physician embryologist who processed the egg and sperm for creation of an embryo...

clinic used wrong sperm

I have very good quality control.
I have never used anyone's but my own.

[Bean Counter]

yah....be sure to check those labels first......

You and a lot of other people here on FR seem to trust the MSM's depiction of this couple's feelings a lot more than I do.

How do you know that this couple does not feel exactly as you describe here? Because of AP's excerpts from a judge's legal ruling presenting his decision to side with the couple? What do you suppose AP wants you to feel about this case?

[Paved Paradise]

I know; that's what I don't get. It sounds like the mother gave birth and they used the father's sperm (unless I'm missing something here).

God's way is definitely better, but I do feel really bad for these people.
