The family of an online sperm donor who fathered 15 kids despite not telling the mums he had a genetic condition which causes learning disabilities have defended him, labelling him "kind-hearted".
James MacDougall, 37, advertised on a social media page for lesbian women seeking sperm donors, even though he knew he had Fragile X syndrome which leads to low IQ and developmental delay.
He signed an agreement that he did not want any contact with some of his children but applied to the Family Court for parental responsibility and child arrangements orders, allowing him to spend time with four of his children.
