i appreciated what they are trying to do but i dont think painting all their faces black like that will help them feel more of a family?

Agree totally, they'd need to paint at least their arms and legs as well.

Bad story really, what I find most upsetting is the sperm donor can get rights to over the children. That is wrong IMO.

Just goes to show we shouldn't **** with Mother Nature.

They weren't able to have kids - they interfered with the natural selection process and it went wrong.

Tough ****.

Have you actually read the whole article?

That's a nightmare, so many conflicting emotions. There aren't many of us that would stick with a wife that was pregnant with another mans child, but in this case it was totally unknown to both of them. They must be going through hell.

What would you do?
Give them back to the biological father (who wants them anyway) and then have another go.

Or better still don't have any more kids. The world is too full as it is.

Being very bored at work led me to by a weekly woman mag called Real People, theres an artical titled "Mum told me I was WHITE!" As a boy Dave Myers, 46, didn't look like anyone in his family. Decades later, he found out why...
His Mother said he had a rare skin condition called Melanism that made him black when they were all white, truth was she'd been playin around, but convinced him and all the family he was white, WTF!!!!
She rang and left a message on his answerphone when he was 26 years old!

in answer to your question, yes,.. i did. i feel for the couple in the sense of the 'mistake' that was made, but they've parented those kids for six years..
would you ever consider adopting a child from somewhere like Sri lanka or the Maldives etc after they've been orphaned by a natural disaster? .. they are CHILDREN they deserve happiness!

I don't think the love or care for the children is the issue, I would have no hesitation adapting a child from anywhere.

He thought he was a father for 9 months, she had no idea she was carrying another mans children. And then to add insult the actual father is given access. Those are the issues that would be the most disturbing.
