The definition of a nuclear family has changed, but now some sperm donors are fighting against paying child support because they don’t believe they should be held responsible. A lesbian couple in the U.K. wanted to start a family, but going through a registered IVC clinic was too involved so they asked their friend to be the sperm donor. The lesbian couple has since split up and now one of the partners is going after the sperm donor for child support.

Should the sperm donor be held financially responsible?
