Karen B., a Los Angeles writer in her 40s, found a sperm donor on Craigslist after she and her lesbian partner decided to have a baby.
"I tried every male friend, gay, straight, married and single, but it was really difficult to find somebody," said Karen. "I was running out of options and my biological clock was ticking."
After connecting on the Internet, she and the donor, Daniel C., signed a layman's agreement that the child would live with Karen and she would make all parenting decisions. He would have some visitation rights.
"I always wanted the baby to know the father," said Karen, who had originally intended to use a family friend's sperm until she discovered he was HIV positive.
But as the pregnancy progressed, Daniel interjected himself into the couple's life, even telling the doctor he was Karen's husband, even though he was gay.

That ought to tell you something.
You know, I used to think it would be the worst thing ever to take a child from his parents and let the State place the kid in a foster home somewhere.
I ain’t so sure anymore.
Guess what, Karen! He’ll be your child’s father for the rest of their lives. Kind of makes you think, doesn’t it?
I feel badly about how hard I’m laughing, and not just because I’m spluttering on the keyboard.
Now, here's a title that I didn't think I would see today.
LOL.
This sentence got me.
“Why not allow for more than two parents? Having a psychological parent and a biological parent expands their horizons.”
What a disaster this culture is courting.
Sounds like a bad TV movie.
What a great idea! What could possibly go wrong?
Trouble in paradise.
Can't make this stuff up.
I’m surprised the daily “white trash expo” shows aren’t having a bidding war over this story. It certainly has “freak show” written all over it.
If a gay man married a lesbian woman, would that be a homosexual marriage? Would they be allowed to do that in California?
What a bunch of nutcases. Unfortunately, there’s an innocent child in the middle of it all.
Does it cancel out the gay factor?? Weird. I can’t keep up with all these ‘modern’ relationships!
Freak show...
Romans 1 explains it all.
Neither can the law.
The more I think about it the more my head hurts.......
As predicted by the normal people but denied (at the time) by the perverts.

From the actions have consequences category. Unfortunately it's the children that pay for the parents emotional and mental instability. This case highlights why homosexuals should not have children. And why IVF and artificial insemination is dangerous for kids. Social engineering is not a child's best friend.
When she met Daniel, who worked in retail, he "seemed sincere," according to Karen. "He brought me a big bag of groceries and all is diplomas and childhood pictures. He wanted me to know he was a decent guy."
Well there you go then! Start a family!
