Lesbian Mother to remove Father from child’s birth certificate

Does the idea of a sperm donor have different connotations in Australia than it does in the US?

Both mothers should have been on the birth certificate in the first place, rather than the sperm donor. He agreed to be a sperm donor, not a father. He should have predicted that he would get attached when he decided to be involved. It's wrong that they took his money, yes. But the biomother's ex likely sees this child as her daughter as well, and should be able to fight for parental rights. And I would say the same thing if two men had gotten a surrogate mother and this situation were happening with the genders reversed. I would also say the same if a man and a woman got a sperm donor or surrogate mother.

At least she wont be able to turn around and inevitably sue him for child support. It sucks if he was a parental figure to the child for all those years, though, only to essentially have his rights as a father stolen from him (whoo, that's new).

He had also agreed to father a child with the woman’s then female partner, who can only be known as AA, but that failed. The two women separated in 2008.

Ten years on, after a tumultuous relationship among the three parents, the woman’s ex-partner, AA, is taking the NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages and BB to court to have his name removed from the girl’s birth certificate.

What would be interesting is-do gay men ever act like this to mothers?
