Firstly of course there is the live and let live angle and why should I care. But I want to know if others would also be a little confused/ concerned/ surprised by this situation. ??
Very close male friend 40's has just had a first child via donor egg with a partner that is almost 50.
The concern is-
-Nobody in the family has met her apart from his mother for a few very short meetings, two are when she was pregnant and a very quick visit post birth.
-Mother is concerned but walking on tiptoes as they are being so secretive and she doesn't know the women and obviously doesn't want to upset anyone.
-They do not live together and only now after birth of a baby are suddenly sorting living together.
Both have good jobs and own property, no financial concerns etc
Baby will obviously be well cared for and is clearly wanted as IVF
Would you think he was her last chance, sperm donor??
Would you just think a very private and slightly disorganised couple?
Would you be concerned a woman would choose to have.a baby with a man without even meeting his family? let's be honest they could all look like Shrek be completely crazy for all she knows.
Would you be concerned if this was you friend/uncle/cousin/brother???
