[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The genetic parents realized the law was not on their side and it would likely be a costly and unsuccessful lawsuit to win custody so they agreed to this arrangement to be allowed to stay in the child’s life.  It is very sad for the genetic parents.  [/quote]

The birth mother has said the genetic parents are staying a part of their shared child’s life.[/quote]

I suppose we will ignore epigenetics, because in a very real sense, both mothers are genetic parents. [/quote]

Well, let’s ignore it then because this baby will grow up forever confused.[/quote]
It’s not really confusing? Lots of children are conceived with sperm, egg, and embryo donation. The parents can and should explain what happened here. [/quote]

Think about how the child will feel when they learn the facts.

1. Mixup at the clinic

2. But we found your bio parents

3. And then strong-armed them into not fighting us for you since we lawyered up and they would likely lose

4. But they desperately wanted you and we agreed to some controlled interactions so you can see your bio parents (and siblings?) who look like you and love you and desperately wanted you but we were too selfish to do what was best for you (being with the bio parents who love you and wanted you and were just as screwed by the negligence of the clinic)

There’s no chance this baby grows up thinking her custodial parents did the right thing unless her bio parents are an obvious train wreck [/quote]

All of this. What happened to the best interest of the child? This is purely in the best interest of the now adoptive parents over the interest of the child. Denying her the opportunity to be with her biological parents and siblings (if there are any) is cruel.[/quote]
