[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Either the DNA connection to a child is deeply meaningful or it isn’t. If it’s this meaningful to OP’s sister, she should understand why it’s meaningful to OP as well.[/b] If the idea of not having a genetic connection to the child you’re raising is painful, you should be able to understand that the idea of having someone else raise your biological offspring is also potentially painful.[/quote]

NP. This is almost word for word what I wanted to write. And fwiw the genetic connection is very important to me and I couldn’t have someone else raising my child. I’d be very uncomfortable with this request and [b]I wouldn’t look at the sister the same way again.[/b][/quote]

You couldn’t look at your sister the same way for merely asking???[/quote]

The PPs explained pretty well why it's not just a mere ask. I don't get how people make it sound like this is the same as asking to borrow the car or to babysit for a weekend (which most on DCUM would complain about and say the sister should have had backup arrangements, lol).[/quote]

It’s exactly the same. It’s just asking. Just say no. There is no need to be this over the top dramatic.

Honestly, some of you sound like you’re either insane or just REALLY bored in your everyday lives.[/quote]

Or are incapable of putting yourself in someone else’s shoes. Some of these people say they would never look at their sibling the same way again if he or she dared to even ask the question! I am so sad for their siblings. So much judgment, so little interest in understanding / authentic family relationships.[/quote]
