A Judge Rules That Jason Patric Is Just A Sperm Donor With No Parental Rights
When Jason Patric and Danielle Schreiber broke up in 2009 after being together for years, she asked him to give her his baby batter so that she could have a baby of her own. Jason agreed to jack it into a turkey baster as long as she agreed to not ask for child support and didn't expect him to be a part of the kid's life at all. Danielle agreed, they shook hands and he hand hugged his peen until their future child swan dove into the turkey baster. Danielle was inseminated, got knocked up, gave birth to a son and that was that until now.
Jason never saw his bio-son Gus until he and Danielle got back together in 2011. Jason became a part of Gus' life and they all went to Hawaii together as a family (see pics below). But Jason and Danielle couldn't make it work a second time and so they broke up. Jason's heart had already wrapped all the way around Gus by then, so he decided that he wanted custody of his son. Danielle let Jason visit Gus, but she wasn't looking to make it legal, so they went to court.
TMZ says that after a week of hearing both sides, the judge ruled yesterday that Jason can't claim custody of Gus, because he wasn't married to Danielle at the time and she was inseminated by a doctor. Who knows if Danielle is going to continue to let Jason see Gus after he took her ass to court.
I don't know why Jason and Danielle thought this was a good idea in the first place. Jason gladly gave his ex-girlfriend his sperm thinking that nothing dramatic was going to come out of it. Then they get back together, Jason gets close to Gus, they break up and she thinks he's going to go back to being a non-motherfucking factor in her son's life? Yeah, uh huh. If Danielle wanted sperm from a dude who would quickly disappear from her life and never contact her again, she should've saved herself a whole lot of trouble by asking my dad for some.

If he's a good father, then giving him visitation rights would have been best for the kid. Kids need their dads! I wonder if she objected to his way of raisin the son. Maybe he was asking for too much and ended up getting nothing.

THIS! From what has been presented to the media, it looks like he wanted to have some power over the kid and/or piss the mother off. He could have perfectly solved this out of court. He can't have it both ways. Next time he gives his best swimmers away, he should think about it twice. What can I say, I don't have much respect for someone who changes his mind about something so serious like this. What is he 14?

She's stupid this kid can have his college paid for by Patric and have a dad!
Wow....this is an all around stupid and confusing situation. How did either of these two NOT think this would become messy at some point. This is why you get some anonymous dude to jerk it in a cup instead of asking for sperm from someone you know.
What a mess. I know he agreed to hand over the batter with no strings attached, but once they got back together, he built a relationship with the kid and realized he wanted to be in his life. That's understandable. I see Danielle as being wrong for asking an ex for the batter, for getting back together with him and for letting him get to know his bio son. He's wrong for forgetting the original agreement and for asking for custody and expecting her to agree just like that. They really should work this out for Gus' sake.
And although it's not the case here, I don't think rules should discriminate against long-term common-law spouses as opposed to married couples. Neither is a guarantee of better parenting over the other.

Hasn't anyone heard of sperm banks? That's what they are for---anonymous sperm. The days of picking up a guy at the bar and doing the deed are over. A girl has to pay for the sperm now.
Never get intentionally pregnant by an ex. They are exes for a reason.

Well, this is a sad story all around, isn't it? Since there's no way we'll ever know the full, true, complete story, I'll just say the court has to keep to the precedents already set, and hopefully he'll still get to see his son. He needs to pay support also, if he wants visitation. The only thing he didn't have before was a legal say in his child's life, but that was his choice.
Aw MK! That last sentence broke my heart! : (
i had the hots for him when i watched speed 2.
"WHAT IS BEST FOR THE CHILD" IS THE ONLY QUESTION THAT MATTERS
anyone asking a different question ('what is best for me?', 'what do i feel like doing?', 'what's the best way to stick it to my ex?', etc) doesn't deserve to be a parent.
This just sounds very wrong. No, he doesn't deserve custody, but I do think he deserves some visitation with the child.

Everyone has their prerogative, most women want to experience motherhood including the pregnancy process. I love my husband and I think when the time is right I want to have his babies because I would love that our child have some of the characteristics that I like from my husband if we can't be naturally maybe we should get treatment (her brother and sister-in-law had trouble to conceive, for my brother-in-law adopting was never an option ) but my husband and I agree that if this happen we'll adopt.
I understand that people want their own kids but I feel sick with comments like "Oh I'm not going to solve the "problems" of crackheads, teens & poor people :/

I don't think he deserves custody but he does deserve visitation rights. Hey, if they both stuck to the original agreement then it would be different, but they got together again and he emotionally got involved with his son. Legally he might not have a say, but for the best welfare of the child a line has been crossed. Keeping her son away from his biological father seems cruel to both father and son. Of course this means it is time for him to start paying child support.
====================================================
I mostly agree. But it doesn't sound like she's "keeping her son away from his biological father". It sounds like she didn't want to give the father legal custody, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I think where Jason Patrick went wrong was demanding custody in court.
What he should have done was ask for formal visitation rights; a guarantee that even if he and his ex didn't get along, he could still see his son. He could have done this out of court. The going to court makes me think that he had an ulterior motive (of messing with his ex), beyond just being in the kid's life. Based on the information presented, it doesn't sound like she was the one being unreasonable, or trying to keep him from the kid's life.
What's going to happen now (as a result of this court battle), I don't know. Hopefully, she'll continue to let Jason Patrick visit his kid (as long as he isn't a bad influence. I heard a few years ago that he was someone with anger issues a la Christian Bale. This may be a reason that she didn't want to share custody with JP).

You can't just pick and choose to be a parent when it's convenient for you. He should get visitation, and that's it.

Well, I happen to see it as selfish. If you aren't married or with a partner I think you're doing your child a disservice.

Well, all I can say is I hope you never have a child.
For the record - I meant single women choosing IVF. Not single parents.
Whatever the terms were of their original sperm donation contract, I would say Mom modified the original terms when she got back together with Jason and let him be daddy to this kid for over a year. In his position I would also fight for custody -- at least joint physical custody which is essentially formalized legal visitation rights, giving him court mandated time with his child (tho his original sperm donation decision seems to show poor judgment). She changed the rules when she got back together with him.
I don't think he deserves custody but he does deserve visitation rights. Hey, if they both stuck to the original agreement then it would be different, but they got together again and he emotionally got involved with his son. Legally he might not have a say, but for the best welfare of the child a line has been crossed. Keeping her son away from his biological father seems cruel to both father and son. Of course this means it is time for him to start paying child support.
An informal visitation arrangement doesnt guarantee anything, and like MK said this got litigious so whose to say Mom's gonna keep letting Jason visit his son. Either way you dice it, this situation is a mess.

We can agree to disagree but there are plenty of couples who have babies for selfish reasons and do a giant disservice to the child simply by having it. As the child of a single mother I can tell you two doesn't always mean better........

Adopting one might be good for the millions of homeless children out there and if we can't have or own, we adopt.
But we each have our own LIFE and we want to make a baby that is our very own, raise it, love it. There is NOTHING selfish in wanting to do that.
It's sad that there are so many homeless kids out there but we have our own lives to live in whatever way we want to live it.

I did see he wanted custody (50/50) and I do believe the judge did make the right call.
Seems they had an informal visitation thing going on but he wanted more (for now).
I am on her side on this for the most part yet she really made a stupid decision to go this route for a sperm donor. Water under the bridge though.
@Texndoc. You are spot on.
What I took from the story is that the woman IS WILLING to allow Jason Patrick to be in the boy's life, she just doesn't want him to have LEGAL CUSTODY.
The difference is: JP can spend time with his son, take him to little league games, teach him how to play soccer, help him earn boy scout badges, whatever. But JP has no say in what the kid's religious practices will be, what kind of school he'll go to, medical decisions, or big questions like that.
I don't think the mother is being selfish at all. I agree with her. They had an arrangement. She isn't attempting to keep Jason from seeing the child. She didn't try to move to another state or another country (like Halle Berry). Jason Patrick isn't even claiming she did any of those things, or even threatened to do them. He decided he wanted legal custody, but given that these two can't seem to maintain a stable relationship, if he had gotten custody, it might have resulted in their using the custody to hurt each other (fighting in court over every single aspect of the child's life).
And for those who automatically sided with him, consider: if she's already allowing him to be in the child's life, why did he take her to court for custody? What would that have gained him? I think it was about trying to use the child to fuck with her.
Do you actually think that if the judge had allowed Jason Patrick some custody of the child, that he would have offered to pay child support? It didn't sound like he made that offer in the first place. She would probably have had to take him to court, and he would have argued that he wasn't obligated to pay child support because of the very arrangement he was asking the court to throw out.

If someone doesn’t want to be a father, he shouldn’t be doing any “favors”. He can donate anonymously if he needs the money but otherwise, there is really no reason why he should. Lord knows, these things tend to mess up very frequently. A possible outcome, could lead to your offspring tracing you down (because he/she knows your name) and maybe demand/ harass / sue you or, as shown in this case, you could make a mistake by getting too attached to the kid and then be told you have no rights because, after all, you are nothing but the sperm donor.
As for the mommy, if your long term boyfriend wasn’t a good husband/ boyfriend material and didn’t even want to be in the child’s life -why make him your kid’s father? I agree with those who said that it’s good to know the father medical family history, but you know what, medicine is not an exact science, and diseases can skip a generation or two, and if you are going to live long enough you are very likely to develop an age related neurological or neoplasm disease of some sort. So you never can be sure.
Aww. It's a nice change of pace from the deadbeat dads who will eat their own shit before accepting the responsibility that comes with knocking up a woman.

I feel that most people who make those kinds of statements already have their 1-2 kids and/or have actively decided not to have them. Most kids are borne for selfish reasons. Also, plenty of kids in two parents households grow up in f'd up environments. I know there are plenty of kids out there to be adopted but you could make the same argument to ANYONE wanting to give birth.
Now I am NOT advocating Octomom or anything but it's pretty unfair to expect single women to turn off the biological urge to have babies of their own.

Idk, I think it's a mighty prickish move for this asshole to demand custody(I'm guessing joint) when his original agreement was him having no financial or any other parental obligations to this kid, because he couldn't afford it, and then he tries to get custody like he just has as much right as the only parent who was taking care of this kid all this time. Especially when she was already allowing him visitation AFTER he broke up for the second time with her? I have to agree with the people siding with her on this. She didn't deny him visitation with his son, he's just trying to over step his bounds. What a giant douche.
