Additionally, the claim that these children lacked a father/adequate parenting is not in evidence. They were probably more likely than average to be born into stable two-parent households since their parents were planning to have children & evidently have access to healthcare.
Sure but GP has a point. He is going around saying he "fathered" them, that they are "his children". Sure that's true in the strict sense of the word, and it is good that he is providing for them in some respect, but it is sad to reduce fatherhood to this transactional, materialistic sense. Are those children going to think of Durov as their "real dad"?
Ah this is fair, I thought Pavel was doing similar Muskian thing of singling out women he found hot, making them sign NDAs, and keeping them in hotel rooms for the duration of their pregnancy and then ignoring those children.
I didn't realize this was more of a traditional sperm donation effort. Kudos to him then!
