You can’t legally be a step dad without adopting the thing.

and here’s a hint — (one troll, one not troll I’ll let you figure it out).

[Adder]

so if your appendix is about to burst you think God is telling you something?

He sure is:”Thou shouldst get thine a$$ to a hospital!”
[At least that would be the message I would come away with....]

[dangerdoc]

You are a step dad unless you adopt the thing, then you are the adoptive father. You seem to be off your game today.

I thint the hint should read, (two trolls, one not), your first post would fall under the troll banner IMO.

“The whole sperm bank/IVF thing is rather creepy in a society obsessed with free sex and no responsibilities.”

I don’t see what IVF has to do with free sex or no responsibilities. Having a child is a huge responsibility.

[Still Thinking]

Um, the genes from the person you describe DON’T go to the child so produced. That’s the whole point. They get to borrow someone else’s genes and raise the kid.

[Still Thinking]

Wait, wait......It’s...for the Chilrun! Finally an appropriate time to use that liberal slogan.
