Sperm donor needs to pay child support?

[Msmith]

I really scratch my head on this one:

TOPEKA, Kan. -- The state of Kansas is trying to force a man who donated sperm to a lesbian couple to pay child support, arguing that the agreement he and the women signed releasing him from all parental duties was invalid because they didn't go through a doctor...

It's really absurd at this point. The entire field of family law has had so much precedent that has chipped away at the rights of men over the last 25 years that most courts essentially get the result they want (**** over the 'father') and work backwards to create a rationale for it.

For awhile I was looking at going into family law and I ended up absolutely disgusted by where the field has gone. There's really no justice in family court for men.

My son is 11, and I've already planted the seed that getting married isn't the ideal scenario.

If your marriage fails, the woman gets 1/2 of your shit and a % of your future shit.
If your marriage is golden, you die... and then they get 100% of your shit.

One of my cousins only likes wealthy men. She is apparently a good looking gal, and early in her life she got married to an older hideous but insanely rich dude. Their wedding was unreal, and the guy was a great guy from all accounts. That ended about a year later, and she took him for all he was worth. She obtained a ton of $$$ and assets from that relationship. Now she is with another older rich dude, not really an ugly dude but you can tell, she values that more than about anything. Get her drunk and she'll even admit that she married dude 1 for the money, and planned to divorce him soon enough after.

One reason I really don't want to get married. I'm very afraid that I'll lose everything I've got. I've worked hard to get so much assets at a young age and I'd even be afraid that some sleazy attorney could slice through a prenup like swiss cheese finding some BS loophole.

If they met off Craigslist, why did he give them his name and info?

Because nobody can agree to sign/give/agree to give away the rights of the Child. Not the mother, the father or anybody. It is supposed to be "Child" support not mother support but we all know how that goes, don't we!!!!

Attorneys are slicing through these kinds of "contracts", pre nups as well, and making them worthless.

Be very careful out there people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know, it just sucks, and the state sucks too! Assholes!

One more thing... I understand the state may have its laws they must follow, but even if the legal system won't respect the documents they signed "in ignorance," regardless of the loophole the state is using to protect itself, I suspect the birth mother should respect the contract as was intended they day they signed it. This is what makes he a piece of shit regardless of her sexual tendencies.

But I guess hard times bring out the worst in some...

Dude was an idiot for using his real name. Unless they tracked down his DNA through some criminal data base. Craig's List ad for sperm. Gotta be hard up for drink or dope to sell your jizz on CL.
