Right or wrong?

Linky

Is this the right decision or not? Sure the children arn't biologically theirs but the women are by now emotionally attached.

Tricky. Surely you'ld want to keep the one you have brought up as your own but also get the one who is genetically yours. Obviously both mum's cannot do that......

Considering what % of men bring up children who are not their own (but think they are if you know what I mean) it would appear that perception is everything....

.... until DNA tests come along and screw everything up....

Very hard on the poor little lads, imagine being dragged away from the person that has cared for you for two years and handed over to a complete stranger.

There are certain times when you tend to think a medical profession cover up might have been for the best - this seems to be one of those times!!!

I guess really the courts had to order the swap back really - going to be soooo tough on all involved really and one of those situations where knowing what to do for the best is nigh on impossible. Should the "wrong" parents continue to be a part of the life of the child etc. Is being 2 years old etc old enough to leave long term emotional damage etc??

Tough one hey

It seems in all circumstances, the law ignores the best interests of the children, preferring the "rights" of the parents. I generally differ on that point of view.

It is a terrible thing to take such young children from the people they call mum and dad and give them to complete "strangers". Regardless of the wishes of the parents, I would say the best interests of the children, once they get to that age, is to stay with the parents they've bonded with. I wouldn't want to be the one to decide to swap them.
