Mom Forced Daughter, 14, To Be Her Surrogate Mother

 

 

 

Since she couldn’t have children herself, a mother forced her 14-year-old adopted daughter to be her surrogate mother, forcing the teen to inseminate herself with donor sperm for a period of two years.
 
Details of the shocking case have emerged in a previously secret court judgment, the Guardian reported. It raises serious questions about how child protection agencies investigate complaints and whether reform is needed.
The adoptive mother, who cannot be identified for fear of identifying her daughter and grandchild, is now serving a five-year prison sentence after admitting child cruelty.
 

In a high court judgment deciding welfare provisions, family division judge Sir Peter Arthur Brian Jackson described “an abiding sense of disbelief that a parent could behave in such a wicked and selfish way towards a vulnerable child”.

 

According to the Telegraph, the judgment said the daughter “became pregnant at her mother’s request, using donor sperm bought by the mother, with the purposes of providing a fourth child for the mother to bring up as her own:

 

“The AI [artificial insemination] was planned when A [the daughter] was 13, began when she was 14 and ended when she became pregnant with D [her child]” at the age of 16, the judge said.

 

“The truth was only discovered at the birth. Midwives were alarmed at the “pushy and insensitive” mother, who tried to prevent her daughter breastfeeding the newborn, saying “we don’t want any of that attachment thing”. “
