I have a story to share and I need opinions about this please.
So a family had been married for over 10 years without a child. They had tried every means possible to get one from traditional medicine to doctors in different places but still no result. At the point of giving up, one of their doctors advised them to try Artificial Insemination. For a long time, they kicked against it until they decided to give it a try as they had run out of options. The doctor recommended a really good hospital abroad that specialized in that area. They went to the hospital and had an appointment with a doctor and plans were in place to carry out the procedure. It was done and after 2 months, the lady was pregnant. They were overjoyed, their happiness knew no limits.
After 8 months, she gave birth, but the baby was White. Yes White, I don’t mean Albino, I mean White. The parents were confused as they were both very much black and the husband had no trace of light coloured people in his family line and neither did the lady. They didn’t know whether to be upset or happy. They carried out a paternity test and it was discovered that the man was not the biological father of the baby. The lady swore she was faithful and that she hadn’t been with anyone else. They decided to go back to the hospital where they carried out the procedure and make enquires. On getting to the hospital, they met with the doctor who carried out the procedure and explained the situation to him. He was also surprised but decided that they should carry out a paternity test again to be certain and the results were the same.
After further investigation, it was discovered, that on the day the Black family had their procedure, another family; a White family had also had their procedure done right before theirs, and the tube used for the black family’s procedure had a remnant of the White man’s semen in it and it was unknowingly used for the black family. They invited the white man and explained the situation to him and requested that he allowed them to test his DNA and see if it matched that of the child’s. He agreed, after the test, it was confirmed that the child was his. Hmm.
Now the White man demands that since the child is biologically his, he should have custody of him but the Black family refused as they had waited so long for a child.
What do you think about this? What should the Black family do? What should the White man do? Who has right over this child? Opinions please.
