Ohio woman sues sperm bank after birth of mixed-race baby

A white Ohio woman is suing a sperm bank for mistakenly giving her and her white same-sex partner sperm from an African-American donor, her lawyer said on Wednesday.

Jennifer Cramblett, 36, of rural Uniontown in northeastern Ohio, sued Midwest Sperm Bank in Chicago on Tuesday in Cook County Circuit Court for “wrongful birth and breach of warranty” following the birth of Cramblett’s daughter two years ago.

Cramblett said in the lawsuit that although she and her partner love the “beautiful, obviously mixed race” little girl, she is concerned about bringing her up in a white, racially intolerant community in a white “often unconsciously insensitive” family.

Cramblett said in the suit that she has been told by therapists and experts that she must relocate to a racially diverse community.

Cramblett said her family is already uncomfortable with the fact that she is a lesbian, and that she doesn’t want her daughter to feel stigmatized or unrecognized due to the circumstances of her birth.

I don’t know about anyone else, but if, when I grew up, I found out my parents sued someone because I wasn’t what they wanted… then I’d feel stigmatized.
