I think it's outrageous that this kind of thing is sanctioned by this society. The kind of woman who can't find a man to marry, or doesn't want a man to marry, has no business raising a child. They seem to regard having a baby as analogous to going to PetsMart and buying a cat. That said, what's done is done, and anything you can do to provide a male role model in the child's life would be beneficial.

P.S. Intelligence has very little to do with it. Many, if not most, women who go this route are intelligent, but they are also unfortunately, narcissistic. It's good judgement that they lack.
