[quote=Anonymous]Just consider that you are shackling yourself to this person, as well as their potentially objectionable family, for life. This person you don’t love, don’t trust, and don’t even really like either, will become an ever-present given in any relationship, any iteration of future *additional* family that you choose to build. (Because if you go ahead with this, what you’ll be doing here will be building a family, however untraditional, and you can try to ignore that but you’ll never be able to undo it.) You’ll be coparenting with someone who you know has incompatible values. You’re going to drag the rest of your family into this mess too.

Even if they “agree” to never be involved in the child’s life ever, whether it’s to get out of the financial responsibility in raising him/her or whatever, it’s unreasonable to expect that to be honored. The child is going to look for their other parent. Genetic testing kits and whatnot make it easier to track people down. They will come back into your life, like it or not.

If you are both really diplomatic, polite, even-keeled and stable, and think that of the other person despite your breakup, then maybe.[/quote]
