I was talking about general cases... not that there are likely many.

I would note that generally how news works is... when something that is out of the norm happens... it is reported.

Note that people who donate to sperm banks do not have to pay child support.

Also, technically she didn't forge her signature.  She committed Criminal Simulation.  It's like Manslaughter instead of murder.

Basically, it's not a forgery because she wasn't trying to screw him out of money... as evidenced by the fact that it took her 3 years to try and get money out of him... and only because she was bankrupt and her son was about to die.

Why this is a problem in the UK where there is supposed to be universal healthcare i'm not sure... how does a kid with a fatal illness bankrupt their parent?

Outside which, I wouldn't be surprised if he wins an appeal and we just never hear about it.


If it were me i'd sue the sperm bank.

This is actually not true. I've read about many cases where women found out who their sper donors were, and then sued them for alimony and won. Essentially, the laws are outdated and don't take into consideration modern phenomenae. A sperm donor should not be liable for child support in any situation.

And women should stop thinking that they're entitled to have children through sperm clinics, and then have men support these children. This woman is a perfect example. It's irrelevant that her son was dying. She wanted him, she had him with stolent sperm, she should provide for him. This guy is in no way responsable for the brats this woman had, he has his own family and his own children to take care of. He shouldn't be drained of his life savings by those 3 leeches.

And I find it hard to believe that any court release him of his obligation to pay child support, sadly. He should sue the sperm bank, but morally he shouldn't have to pay child support at all. He should also make sure this woman's arrested for stealing his property. That's definately what I would do.


Oh?  Prove it... and prove it's a common phenomna.

Also, i think your ignoring that in the cases it does happen.  They aren't ruling for the women.

They are ruling for the child.

A smart move for people caught in rulings like this who lose appeals would be to demand custody rights because their other parent literally went behind their back to have a kid.
