Another First - All three adult members of polyamorous family deemed child's parents by Newfoundland judge

ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland, June 13, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – A Newfoundland judge has declared a polyamorous trio of one woman and two men all legal parents of the child the woman gave birth to last year. The decision appears to be the first of its kind in Canada.



In ruling on the case of Re CC, Justice Robert Fowler of the Newfoundland and Labrador Supreme Court Family Division observed the child was born in 2017 as the result of a polyamorous relationship between two men and one woman he described as "stable and ongoing" since June 2015.



In the first decision of its kind in Canada, all three adult members of a polyamorous family have been recognized as parents of a child.



Two months ago, Justice Robert Fowler of the Newfoundland and Labrador Supreme Court (Family Division) in the case of Re C.C., decided the adults would be named as parents of the child born within their three-way relationship.



In the introduction to his decision, Justice Fowler described the unconventional St. John's household:



"J.M. And J.E. are the two male partners in a polyamorous relationship with C.C., the mother of A., a child born of the three-way relationship in 2017. The relationship has been a stable one and has been ongoing since June 2015. None of the partners in this relationship is married and, while the identity of the mother is clear, the biological father of the child is unknown."



The three adults brought a court proceeding asking to be recognized as the parents of A. after the Newfoundland Ministry of Service refused to designate them as parents, saying that the Vital Statistics Act allowed only two parents on the child's birth certificate.



In his ruling, Fowler observed that "the child, A., has been born into what is believed to be a stable and loving family relationship which, although outside the traditional family model, provides a safe and nurturing environment.... I can find nothing to disparage that relationship from the best interests of the child's point of view.... To deny this child the dual paternal parentage would not be in his best interests. It must be remembered that this is about the best interests of the child and not the best interest of the parents."

It's surely a coincidence that the mother is identified as CC.

That judge just opened the door to legalized polygamy.

Many People said expanding the definition of marriage from one man one woman, to other forms, would open the door for polygamy, and of course they were right.



Once again when the left reaches a goal, they don't stop and celebrate when its won, they move the goalposts to another more extreme goal to go after.

Polygamy leads to sexual slavery..



Look at Bountiful, BC.

Hat tip to the New England poet Doug Anderson for this.

What if all the proscriptions against casual sex were about patrilineal tribal descent and being always able to tell whose kid it was?



What if all the proscriptions about homosexuality were originally about the tribe's survival in numbers?



What if these beliefs are buried so deep in our psyches we attach morality to them, when they have nothing to do with morality?



What if there was an emphasis on compassion in the long expungement of beliefs that have no relevance in the contemporary world?



What if real morality came from love?
