Oh dear it's starting!Has anyone seen the recent update? Someone came to the house to do a newborn photo shoot but she didn’t feel well enough to get involved so her mum did while she laid on the sofa. While it’s lovely she has family support I don’t think pandering to her does her much good. It’s not like she had to go anywhere the photographer came to them, she just had to get off the sofa for a bit
Ah yes, I hadn't considered the infertility angle, though as you say it's not like she had any problem with that. I wonder if she'll tack herself onto that crowd in the future...
I saw her story and came straight hereI know i comment on it everytime but
I wanted to reply to her insta story question and say "stick a screen infront of him, it's what you usually do"
you’ve totally hit the nail on the head there
Not my original post, but both international adoption and anonymous donor conception are very controversial and I don’t morally agree with either - but the reality is they’re both legal and relatively common ways people have families.
Edit; since it is reported she's on UC. I think she was the one who shared this?
I would think that her mental health issues in her pregnancy also had to do with the fact she was literally having a strangers baby (its not only her offspring as she seems to like to think) and also at least some tiny part of her subconscious intuitively knew that what she was doing in bringing this child into the world was deeply wrong and cruel as well as a subversion of nature-the child is not the product of love and marriage between a woman and a man.
The fact that she apparently thinks of herself as feminist is laughable. The way she conceived him is nothing short of something like a scenario from the novel "The Handmaid,s Tale". The biological father of her child will have donated his sperm to other women also (possibly to feed his huge ego of spreading his DNA ). It would seem that more specifically related to the fact that her parents paid for her to get impregnated so that she does not have to have an adult relationship, it seems she considers herself feminist also for rejecting having had sexual intercourse with a man and also rejecting giving birth vaginally. Yet despite this she does not have a problem with inserting menstrual cups up her vagina...
Yes, apparently it would appear that according to her that because those single mothers from working class or other less financially secure backgrounds than her parents , have had sexual intercourse and she considers sexual intercourse to be either disgusting or frightening or both and yet again she did not have a problem with sticking menstrual cups up her vagina....go figure...!
She had no idea what having a baby would actually be like. As mentioned earlier when the child has his own individuality when he is older, she will not be able to handle it. If her mother wanted to be a grandmother so much, she should have allowed and or trained Bryony to interact with members of the opposite sex close to Bryony,s age since she was a teenager, but oh no, she/Bryony,s parents apparently did not want their daughter to get married and have sexual intercourse for whatever strange reason, probably a reason like Munchausens by proxy..
Why? Is that something that financially privileged young people just do?
In my opinion you can't generalise like this.It isn,t worth taking your comment seriously as clearly you appear to think children's fundamental rights and needs for a financially and mentally stable mother and a father (preferably their genetic parents if possible) are "problematic and offensive" and in its place you falsely believe that adults misperceived rights to have children is important.
There is no such thing as adults fundamental rights to have children. There are no special adults who have the right to have children more than other adults .
Adoption again fulfils children's needs and rights.
Thats all there is to "unpack".

Katy Faust did not come up the basic principles I outlined-whoever she is. I do not think I would find her an interesting person. There has been widespread knowledge of the psychological damage and distress experienced by children who were the product of extramarital affairs, long before "sperm donation" was in existence. There are lots of different types of people who object to sperm donation, egg donation and surrogacy, it isn,t confined to people of her type. Ms Faust did not back up her statements with sources., although it would appear to be "completely valid."
The following sample survey shows a significant number of adult people who were donor conceived experienced psychological distress when they found out they were donor conceived.
How Do Individuals Who Were Conceived Through the Use of Donor Technologies Feel About the Nature of their Conception?
As DNA testing becomes more easily accessible, users ought to think carefully about the decision to learn the nature of their conceptionbioethics.hms.harvard.edu
Its not likely that donor conceived children who always knew that they were donor conceived all of their lives will not be distressed once they become adults and understand what being donor conceived means. A significant number of people who come from married parents which that they had never been brought into existence , so somehow it is thought that people who come from donor conception/ science experiment would not be or never be distressed/psychologically harmed by it??!!
There is no such thing as adult rights over children's instinctual needs and rights.
This is also discussion.

In no way did I condone adoption where the natural mother or both natural parents did not choose or consent to give their child up for adoption. The reason why I mentioned international adoption is because there is a shortage of children in Britain available for adoption. "picking a child up out of their home and culture" . People of different races and ethnicities share British culture whether you like it or not-its 2023. No culture is more important than being rescued from chronic poverty. Adoption is not problematic because it is about the children's rights and needs for a mother and father , not adults wanting to have their own bloodline.
The fact that no one consented to exist does not in any way justify the use of donor eggs and sperm or women being exploited for surrogacy. In fact it bolsters the argument against donor eggs and sperm and a lot of surrogacy, because plenty of people -even from married parents of a father and mother, for a variety of reasons-wish that they did not exist. So if lots of people who knew both their biological parents wold rather not have existed, the chances of donoir conceived people resenting their existence and biological and non-biological parent is far likely to be much higher and that is the reality. It is your type of thinking "every adult has the right to have a child"that leads to a situation like Bryony.
Bryony does not do her pad business anymore and thinks that she can make enough money off youtube as far as I know and from what other people have said.
Your comments about adoption are bigoted . Vast amount of people in society and adoptees themselves see no problem with international adoption.
i give it a month or less
Agreed, when she cooks it always seems to be rather childish and simple concoctions. And don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with 'simple' meals or oven food at all! But with Bryony it just stands out as another life lesson/part of growing up that she seems to have missed out on. Probably due to her weird teenage years. Even moving into her own apartment at a relative young age didn't seem to spur her on or inspire her to be learn to cook anything more inspiring than super noodles or ordering takeaways at great expense
