why would she want this, sperm donation gets her/them the same thing, with none of the potential future complications or implications.
It doesn't make sense why anyone would ask for this, ergo there is more going on than we or the OP have been told about... and *that* means run away. |

There's potential for so much emotional trauma down the line. You can't predict how you'll feel about the child in 5yrs, 10yrs, beyond that. They can get sperm donors anonymously through assisted conception services that the NHS/Private clinics are able to provide. You're better off telling them to explore that avenue. |

I'd like to think I could help someone, but the emotional connection is something I cannot predict. So probably wouldn't choose to |

bedore being a parent I did not want children. Then my eldest daughter was born and I could not believe how my feelings and my life changed the moment I held her in my arms for the first time. I actually held her all night long and the midwifes could not pry her from my arms. I now have 4 daughters and I could not imagine any one of them being in this world and not being a part of their lives and not being able to tell them how much I love them. They really are the most amazing things I will ever do.
You have no idea how it will affect you if you proceed with the arrangement but if you are anything like me you will have a hole in your life until you die.
Ha, I realise that was quite heavy and not without a little nausea inducing sentiment but I honestly think it's a bad idea. |

There and to the left a bit |
"Wot dus CSA stand for ???????
It's come up trice ??????"
It stands for Child Support Agency, although they no longer exist - it's now called the Child Maintenance Service (CMS) and they could hold you legally accountable to pay around 20% of your after tax income to the mother of your child until that child is 18 (or possibly older depending on any full time education the child may do).
My advice to you would be not to do this - the emotional impact could be huge and that's before you even consider the financial one. It might seem a "nice thing to do" for a friend on the surface but it goes way way deeper than that. As others have said there are other options available to them than this one. |

I'm not a guy but my advise is don't do it, you might be opening yourself up to a world of hurt and if things go wrong you will end up supporting a child you didn't want, there are enough children in the world that aren't wanted.
I would suggest your friend goes through the anonymous donor route as there will be no repercussions for you to face later in life |

How are they proposing it happens? Are there doctors involved or are they expecting a natural conception?
Emotions you can deal with now but when they let you know that they've had a baby boy or girl? A whole world of emotions there - what do they look like? Do they look like me?
At some point in the future the parents might decide to tell the child that the dad is legally but not biologically the dad. How are you going to feel if they then decide they want to meet you?
Just a few things off the top of my head |

You say you can deal with emotions. What about when your mate starts bombarding you with pictures of their newborn baby...your baby. How might you feel then? You can't say for sure now.
If times get hard for them financially, there's nothing to stop them from contacting the CSA and instigating claims against you.
How would you react if, in 18 years time they decide to tell the child the truth and he/she comes looking for you? Again, you can't say how you'll react then, now.
What you're considering comes with so many pitfalls and minefields legally and emotionally. |

What if they split up? What if her current partner gets difficult and says the child isn't his. What if they do a DNA Test and prove its not.
What if he decides to stop paying for the child?
What if she can't financially afford to keep the child so goes to court to get the biological father (you) to pay.
DNA proves it's yours. You end up paying for a child until they are 18 you may never see and have no real say in the upbringing off. Distance doesn't mean you won't have to pay. They will find you and an Attachment of Earnings may be slapped on you.
It's complicated and the potential for it to go tits up is very real.

If 90% of people on the tread are saying don't go there that must tell you something right ? I really think you don't have any idea about how this can impact your life and the child's life, just let them find an anonymous donor and be happy for them once they have the child they want.

If you think you could handle the emotional trauma that this scenario could cause then go for it. But personally I think this could cause a lot of pain and drama for you. |

do you have children already? otherwise, another thing to consider is your own fertility..would they not want you to get that checked out first?..check your family medical history?...another reason to go via a clinic, where those questions will have been dealt with already? |
