Women, how would you react if?

My first reaction (after shock and anger) would be to ask him to hand over the documentation I signed giving permission for my DNA to be used. Technology like that would need to have very strict guidelines, so no one's DNA would be used without their permission. Clinics would be doing everything possible to avoid law suits.

I'm not swapping DNA on the first date.

In a lot of these cases, though, you have a guy who either signs birth certificates or steps in and acts as the child's father, and only later does he contest it. At that point, the law seems to be saying that you're *still* financially responsible for the child, whether it's yours or not; whether it was voluntary or not.

In the case of the fertility clinic, I'd think a jury would be likely to find that they were extremely negligent, and therefore the CLINIC should pay for child support. (That's where I'd go with it, anyway.)

It is, very literally, the $64,000 question. That's about how much you end up paying in child support for a kid ages 0 to 18.

Surely he would need an egg, not just DNA? Anyway, I would think the man was a total nut and I can't imagine why anybody would do such a convoluted thing. And I would of course take him to court over it.

There should be laws against that, but I don't know how you'd prove that somebody took your sperm/egg without permission and used it to create a child...

I think you just need to keep it real. Leave tomorrow's problems for tomorrow.

Someone is getting punched in the face...

This isn't the same as having sex, so you're making no real point here.

You need to stop smoking so much weed, it's got you thinking stupid ****.
