Sperm donor to lesbian couple ordered to pay child support

[

Read, you moron. He and the couple had a signed agreement in which he gave up custody and they gave up claims for future support. The state is ignoring this agreement.

Any agreement between the father and the lezbos is not binding on the govt. THINK.
 
I want to be a donor for Rachael Maddow.
My only stipulation is she has to be present when I
ahem....deliver my essence.
 
he should have gotten the legal protection at the time.

That is the lesson here.

Why should he need legal protection? If he has to pay child support can he sue for custody? The state has both parents of the child available, they just want to force him to pay because they are using laws based on 19th century thinking.

I'd fight for custody to get that child away from that fucked lifestyle.
 
Why should the sperm donor have to pay if they are not going to have anything more to do with the child's life? If the people who are going to be the parents can't provide what is needed, the baby should go to someone who can. A true parent will put the child's well being first and foremost. :) :) :)

God bless you always!!! :) :) :)

The alleged parent was doing just that...by applying for public assistance to support the child, she only had the child's best interest in mind.
 
He doesn't want custody or visitation, and the parents are on his side. The state is totally out of line on this.

This is exactly why intelligent people prefer that the state stay out of their lives.

Look! We agree on something! :)

Did you suddenly decide to oppose taxes and social welfare programs? If not, we don't agree on anything, you just prefer a different type of government intrusion that the people on the right.
 
He is the father but this sort of thing will scare off all sperm donors everywhere.

FOX News - Top Stories - 'DAD' FIGHTS BACK: Sperm Donor to Battle Order to Pay Child Support

A Kansas sperm donor who was ordered to pay child support for the baby he helped a lesbian couple conceive plans to fight back in court, and suggested he might be a victim of bias against same-sex parenting.

William Marotta told FoxNews.com he might never have agreed to provide sperm to Angela Bauer and her former partner, Jennifer Schreiner, had he known the legal morass that awaited him after responding to the women's Craigslist ad for a donor in March 2009. The Kansas Department for Children and Families (DCF) recently filed a child support claim against Marotta after the couple filed for state assistance this year, leading the department to demand they provide the donor's name so it could collect.

The 46-year-old machinist said he received notice in late October that he was being targeted by state officials to pay child support after the couple who parted ways in 2010 but still co-parent their eight children ranging in age from 3 months to 25 years were ordered by DCF officials to provide the sperm donor's name. State officials argued that if the women did not identify the donor, the agency would deny health benefits due to withheld information.

So, it was niether Mom that filed...it was the state that filed.
In any circumstance, he should have signed some sort of form waiving any and all rights to the child...that is usually the norm in other cases...wonder why he didn't.

You're correct, I believe in limited government, you believe in no government.We have nothing in common.

He did, but the state is contesting it on the grounds that he didn't "donate" to an anonymous sperm bank.

I do not believe in no government. I understand that government has a real purpose. I just don't believe that purpose has anything to do with the crap you think it does.

Exactly. The person(s) who legally adopted the children is/are responsible. 100%. This is ludicrous. Shame on the state.

Ah, but he did. He waived all parental rights. That left the "couple" free to adopt said child. Now the state comes back because the "parent" has applied for public assistance to support said child. Common practice is for the state to go after the "father" to pay that support. In this case, the "father" is another woman who split up with the child's mother. Personally, I think they should be going after the other "parent" to pay child support, not the sperm donor. But, if enough cases like this occur, maybe the guys will finally figure out that "donating" to this type of charity isn't such a great idea.
