You have no business deciding how someone elses life should play out simply because you disagree with their principles, and how they've lived their life thus far. That's not your call to make. You don't know why they didn't get married prior to having their first child, and quite frankly, it's none of your god damned business.
You've also pretty much insulted every single parent on here, either because they conceived prior to being married, or because they're now single, so therefore, in your eyes are not fit to parent another child through adoption, or any other means.
Who the hell do you think you are? Really.
You've pretty much revealed yourself as a fool, making up out of whole cloth most of what you claim I stand for. I'd use the term 'liar' but that term has pretty much been appropriated by the left.
It comes down to this simple choice: do you cast your lot with this mother, who 'wishes' to have another child, or with the child yet to be conceived, who will be raised surrounded by a multitude of question marks.
At no point have you provided proof that there was a marriage in the works, that the mother has a stable life, that she has done a good job parenting the two year old, that she has a way of providing for a family.
The only proof here is that you agree with the "I want what I want, whenever I want it" philosophy. Liberal.
She has one child, and 100% of her efforts should be aimed toward this already-born child.
And the only mothers that I have insulted are those who think that motherhood is all about them, and I stand with those mothers who will deny themselves so as to give their children the best chance in life.
According to you, the judge should have not allowed the woman to get the sperm... by extension of that.... you're inviting the government to say what a woman can or cannot do with her body and what kind of family she wants to have. Aren't you the one clamoring for 'smaller government', etc.? You're contradicting yourself, PC.
The only extension here is your nose, Pinocchio.
Yes, I think the judge should have denied the request. The indication that she has no legal basis for the request is that she had to go to a judge.
I've met enough people in my life that I've felt like they should never procreate, yet I know that it is their business, their right, their decision and I have NOTHING to say to that and no right to interfere in their lives - in other words, my opinion amounts to SHIT in relations to their lives and how they should lead it.
Let me try to enlighten you. Yes, it is their business, and no, you have no right to interfere in their lives. This is very different from not giving your opinion when you see wrong being done. I commend to you the great Edmund Burke, who said "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
I give my opinion and the reasons for same. Notice how different this is from the behavior of liberals, whose prime directive is "don't you dare criticize anything anyone does," as embodied in phrases such as "Who the hell do you think you are."
The government should only intervene with a family when a child is in obvious and provable danger of harm. Otherwise it's none of anyone's business.
And the government should not intervene here to give permission for an egregious event.
BTW, I wholly agree with the value you state for your opinion.
That said, your opinion as to what she can/should do amounts to NADA, ZIP, ZERO and you have to get over that...
Then why have you and your ilk invested so much emotion on the opposite side? Methinks I have hit a nerve, and there must be some humanity, deep deep down, where liberals realize that not all behavior should be validated.
Maybe you should get off USMB and pay a bit more attention to your own kids... I can't imagine how a mother of two kids can find so much time to talk shit on a message board AND do a good job raising them.
Unwittingly you have announced the motto of the liberal: "silence anyone who disagrees with me."
I feel blessed with the results of my input in my children. Thank you so much for being concerned with their well-being. My blessings on you and yours, and may they bring you as much joy as mine bring me. But, speaking of our children, I think you might want to curb your language.
And since you were so concerned with how I use my time, in all modesty I must admit that this morning I met with a group of home schoolers and took them to the NYC Fire Museum, a tour I had arranged some time ago, and came back in time to answer your post.
With a little effort, you might manage your time as well.
You see? It sucks when someone meddles in your personal affairs... yeah, and it's correct - it's none of my damn business. Clear now?
As your anger seems to have sidetracked your thinking, let me remind you of the point of this thread. This single mother, raising her child to the best of her ability, now believes that the respect she wishes to pay to her lost lover, would be best represented by having his child.
With no marital status, and with the information at hand, we have no way of knowing how well she has done raising the first child, how she will suppot the one, or two children, or anything about the young lady's life, some on this board say "Go ahead, do whatever she wishes."
I say without further information, and with full consideration for the new life at question, the judge had no impetus to give in to the request.
Clear? Now, write soon.
