I hope folks think about this before we allow pols to change the definition of marriage. If it can happen to this woman it can happen to any parent.
This story is the best argument against gay marriage and civil unions. When you change the definition of "marriage" for a few you change the definition of "parent" for everyone.
Er, can anyone say "conflict of interest?"
Pretty sure that disqualifies the entire firm from representing the ex-girlfriend.
Wow! Last I heard this woman was on the run with her daughter. I’m glad things are looking up for them.
What I would like to know in this situation, is who the biological mother is. It may not dictate the right idea outright, but then again, I wonder if she was the child’s biological mother, if she could use that as part of a legal argument. I do feel, however, that if there was some serious fighting between these women in the home, it was not all that great for the child though.
In bed with dogs, get fleas. If she conspired with the girlfriend to obtain the baby, the girlfriend gets shared custody.
I agree with you on the marriage part, but it also gives plenty of the issues that come when people cohabit, including those who are not homosexual. It’s hell to pay when there are kids involved, and these cohabitation relationships actually do break up.
It’s an ex-girlfriend who was neither married, nor a biological parent of the child. The woman wishes, for whatever reason, that her ex-girlfriend not come close to the child. It sounds a lot like abuse as a reason. I hope that she and her daughter come around, but for now, the important part is to ask what the mother’s side of the story is. From reading the article, it sounds a great deal as if there is an unfair bias and the mother’s claim of abuse could be true. I just don’t know the full details.
The bad implications are that the legal structure and precedent of being a parent, legally and/or biologically, is being violated, and that is not good news.
Yes. And from what I remember from previous articles about this situation, the mother left the "gay" life, became (IIRC) a Christian, and of course never gave the previous gf any custody or parental rights etc.
Great comments.
We are right on the brink of the abyss. It either turns around - back to solid, God-based Constitutional principles, or....
Rough road, very rough road.
There were several stories about this situation in the past. The ex girlfriend had nothing to do with the conception or birth of the child. The mother gave up the “gay” life and changed her life for the better. IIRC they didn’t even live together very long.
It’s an insane and disgusting and evil situation.
The mother turned her life around. This is a perfect example of Judges Gone Wild. And of course all those court appointed fiends, such child advocates and child protection agencies are larded with lesbians. Obviously not all or everywhere but it is a profession into which homosexuals have gravitated to.
This is pure EVIL what this judge is doing to the child. Forcing an unnatural worldview that is sick and dysfunctional and ignoring the inalienable rights of a child to their biological mother and biological father.
Our Constitution can NOT recognize two “mothers”. The logic of that and this ignorant judges conception of biology and nature and Natural Rights is so evil and twisted. She lives in an upside down world where she is saying good is evil, and evil is good.
We have one standard of right and wrong set up in the Constitution which she is blatantly ignoring....God’s laws—it is written—NOT her made-up bizarre, sick laws.
This woman took unfair advantage of our Christian attitudes, especially the one of live and let live. She thought she could flaunt her lifestyle choice in our faces and get away with it.
Well, she wove a web of lies and deceit that entangled her.
While I hope, for the benefit of rest of society, that she eventually wins in court, there is a price to be paid for being so stupid, and I'm pleased that she's paying it.
