OH WHAT A TANGLED WEB WE WEAVE

You may remember this case where the parents decided that the birth of their child was a horrible mistake and somebody had to pay. Well someone did.

Now coming before the supreme court is an interesting case where a woman went through in vitro and conceived a child after the father had died .
She now wants Social Security survivor's benefits. Now if the Court finds in her favor (and there is no reason to think they won’t), what about all those other children that entered the world through artificial means? One strong donor has conceived 100 plus children through this oh so romantic method.
If the court does rule in favor of this women when that donor dies will all those children be receiving SS checks?

I am so glad that redefining marriage and family has no ill effect on society.

And will there come a day when some woman will seek child support and win in court? Imagine if some guy has suddenly to pay support for 10 children - or 100!
