If their child were white, no one would notice that she had two mommies...

Jennifer Cramblett filed suit against Midwest Sperm Bank in 2014 because she was artificially inseminated with sperm from the wrong donor and gave birth to a mixed-race daughter.

The sperm bank apologized and refunded part of the cost to Cramblett and her partner Amanda Zinkon. But Cramblett’s suit alleged that the mistake caused her and her family stress, pain, suffering and medical expenses. And, the suit said, in Cramblett’s predominantly white community, she feared that her daughter, Payton, now 3, would grow up feeling like an “outcast.”

But DuPage County judge Ronald Sutter threw out the lawsuit Thursday, agreeing with attorneys for the sperm bank who argued that it lacked legal merit, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Attorneys for the sperm bank had argued that “wrongful birth” suits typically apply to cases where the child is born with a birth defect that doctors should have warned parents about; in this case, the child was healthy. Cramblett had also sought damages for a “breach of warranty.” The judge rejected both claims but said that Cramblett could refile the suit as a “negligence claim,” the Tribune reported.

At the heart of the lawsuit was Cramblett’s claim that she was unprepared to raise an African American child and that her community and her “unconsciously insensitive” family members might not be accepting of a child of a different race.

“Getting a young daughter’s hair cut is not particularly stressful for most mothers, but to Jennifer it is not a routine matter, because Payton has hair typical of an African American girl,” the lawsuit said. “To get a decent cut, Jennifer must travel to a black neighborhood, far from where she lives, where she is obviously different in appearance, and not overtly welcome.”

Such a complicated issue, indeed…
on one hand, one could argue, obviously, that the mothers were racist.
at the same time, one coild not entirely blame them and argue that they had a point, given that their community was quite racist. Aka they did not want their kid to become an outcast.

Nevertheless, that r-wing publication - a jackass, as usual, capitalizing on human suffering in order to sell their publication. So they made this isdue public on the net; and what if, 10 years from now, the girl comes across it on the net? Imagine her trauma.
Not talking about Lit - highly unlikely that she would start digging up the Lit archive;)

The advertisers pay for the content...

The quote is not from that source, it is from the Washington Post hardly a r-w publication.

both are a-holes, then.
and it also rests your case, ironically: that asseholery is an equal opportunity concept, and it does'nt belong strictly to the r-wingers...
 
I feel badly for that little girl. She will read these things sooner than her parents realize and she will feel unwanted.

It's a good thing then that the 3,000 innocent American human babies who will be intentionally killed today for nothing but lifestyle convenience...

...won't be able to read about how horrifically they were murdered, nor feel how utterly unwanted they were.
 
lESBIANS ARE ATTENTION WHORES. All fags are attention whores.

DuPage County. Fucking figures.

They're a stone's throw from actual diversity but I'm sure they'll continue to do everything they can to pretend it doesn't exist, including demonize their daughter for how she looks, probably more severely than any cultural stigma she might face. Oh wait, they've already gotten a jump on all those angles.

This is the tragedy here. :(

If you were that concerned, you'd invest more effort into promoting things demonstrated to reduce unwanted pregnancy, like comprehensive sex-education and low-cost (if not free) birth control for women.

Good point.

"He's been described as a libertarian. Early Amazon investor Nick Hanauer has described Bezos as a libertarian. And Bezos has donated to the nonprofit organization that publishes Reason.com, the Web site of the libertarian magazine with the same name. He also put $100,000 toward the defeat of a 2010 measure that would have imposed an income tax on top earners in the Evergreen State."
