Mother wins dead son sperm case

The lawyer of an Israeli couple who won the right to use their dead son's sperm to inseminate a woman he never met says the case is a boost for family rights. Irit Rosenblum told the BBC the landmark ruling meant family lines could continue even without the written consent of the male prior to death. The dead man, soldier Keivin Cohen, was killed in the Gaza Strip in 2002. A court ruled in favour of his parents who had the sperm extracted after his death, although he had not left a will. "The drama is international, that mankind is able to continue after [a man's] death and his family can raise a new generation while he is no longer here," Ms Rosenblum said. from BBC

That sounds like every guy's nightmare.........Knock up some broad you don't even know or never met.

But seriously.......Why can't some people just let dead people rest in peace?

They can adopt grandchildren.

Wanna leave something behind? Don't have kids or grandkids? Leave a legacy of kindness - a reputation for doing good deeds for no particular reason or season. Start a chain reaction of smiles everywhere you go. Make friends with neighbors. Befriend the youth on your block. Sponsor an under-privileged child each year through local organizations. The list could go on.

Let sleeping dogs lie, and let dead men rest. Sheesh!!

People complain when some fathers are too busy to spend time with their kids. This guy doesn't have time to even say hello to his kids let alone raise them properly.

What a sad story for the children, though. "My grandparents thought I should be born to replace my father?" It just seems selfish, and the child will grow up not knowing their father. Maddening.
