Minnesota mom sues to redefine paternity in lesbian child support clash
Girl meets girl. They fall in love, start living together, and agree to have a child through artificial insemination.
Eventually, things come apart. Their child lives with the biological mother, but spends about a third of each month with the other mother, who has no genetic or legal connection to him.
Bio-mom wants her ex to pony up child support. The ex would rather not, and there's nothing in the law that can make her do it.
This case, filed in Todd County by Sheila Asmus against Lori Hagood, poses the problem of how parenthood is defined in cases of artificial insemination, where a couple legally could not marry at the time the child was conceived.
