Re: lesbian women lies

It depends on a whole bunch of other factors that have nothing to do with deception or sexual preferences.

Women get pregnant because they have sex with a man. Her motivation is not relevant to the court.

WA doesn't recognize custody, we call it primary residential placement. The primary residential placement will go to the person who is best qualified based on the court's evaluation of eleven different factors. The controlling factor is the best interest of the child.

The ONLY two people who have a "right" to a parental relationship with the child are the two parents.

If the father is a sperm bank, there are different rules which are spelled out by the facility.

Fathers can and do become primary residential parents to children - even infants - all the time. Why and how that happens depends on the specific facts and circumstamces and some skilled lawyering.

Hope this helps. Elizabeth Powell
