Llyranor Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 http://nz.lifestyle.yahoo.com/new-idea/rea...-having-a-baby/ Pearl Carter is positively glowing with joy. She has a handsome new boyfriend, is enjoying an active sex life after many years of celibacy and, amazingly, is preparing to become a mother again. But the retired grandmother isn't carrying the baby herself. She and her young lover have spent a staggering $54,000 hiring a surrogate to help them with their dreams of having a child. What makes Pearl's decision to become a mum again even more shocking is that her new boyfriend is her biological grandson, 26-year-old Phil Bailey. Phil is the son of Pearl's daughter Lynette Bailey, and the pair is braving public horror and even prison by breaking one of the last taboos (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) http://nz.lifestyle.yahoo.com/new-idea/rea...-having-a-baby/ Americans.. FFS, Junai, can you give the anti-American racism a rest for five minutes? It's a New Zealand article. What makes you think they're American? perhaps he wonders why the Americans posting in this thread seem bothered by such an unconventional union. HA! Good Fun! ps in case it ain't clear, Gromnir believes that this story is... disturbing. however, if you start with the assumption that junai supports the love of a grandmother for her grandson, then his post makes perfect sense. alternatively, perhaps he were simply a dumbarse who didn't notice that the story were originating in NZ.

Walsingham Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 (edited) If Junai knew that, then he deserves my sincere apologies. Sorry. EDIT: Back on main aspect: what about the kid? It cannot possibly be anything other than wanton cruelty to give birth to a child under these conditions. Ignoring the risk of recessive genetic abnormality from the incest, the mother's also ancient. Then you have the lifelong stigma which will be attached. It's just not right.

Ignoring the risk of recessive genetic abnormality from the incest, the mother's also ancient. Then you have the lifelong stigma which will be attached. It's just not right. bat.gifWrong, extra wrong, and super wrong. What a surprise. The determined pair then decided to use Pearl's retirement money to find a surrogate mother and buy a donor egg to inseminate with Phil's sperm. They placed an ad asking for an open-minded surrogate, and Roxanne Campbell applied. The three met up a few times and hit it off.This situation will neither result in the genetic problems of incest, nor does it come from psychological abnormality, since Pearl and Phil hadn't met until he was 21 (people naturally have an aversion to sex with their family members, but "family members" is defined by upbringing).

Blarghagh Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 That's true. On several occasions I've heard about brothers and sisters who were separated at a young age hooking up later without knowing.

You're saying that incest is not more likely to produce genetic abonormalities, and nor are eggs from an older woman, and nor is there any stigma attached to a kid for having been born in incest?

Killian Kalthorne Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 That's true. On several occasions I've heard about brothers and sisters who were separated at a young age hooking up later without knowing. When you actually know it, it becomes a bunch of squick though. Exactly. Remember Han Solo's reaction when Leia told him Luke was his brother, then he remembered that kiss on Hoth... That look was priceless.
