AITAH for not caring about the fact my niece is biologically mine
Beneath the quiet surface of family bonds lies a profound story of sacrifice and love, where a sister’s heartfelt plea intertwines with a brother’s hesitant courage.
What began as a distant, almost joking hope transforms into a deeply personal journey, bridging miles and medical hurdles, driven by the unspoken promise to help create life in the face of impossibility.
In the shadows of secrecy and whispered expectations, this story unravels a complex tapestry of emotions—duty, fear, and resilience—woven through the brother’s reluctant acceptance and the sister’s unwavering hope.
It is a testament to the lengths family will go, navigating uncharted territories of trust and vulnerability to build a future that once seemed out of reach.

The original poster (OP) entered into an agreement to be a s**rm donor for his sister and her wife, fully aware of the implications, yet he now expresses a strong aversion to having any parental role or emotional attachment to the resulting child.
His conflict stems from his prior agreement and the expectations, perhaps implied or understood, that come with playing such a significant biological role, contrasting sharply with his stated personal disinterest in children and his desire to maintain the role of only an uncle.
Given the OP's clear personal boundaries regarding fatherhood versus the biological connection es**blished through donation, is he justified in refusing any father-figure role, or does the magnitude of his contribution create an unavoidable responsibility that overrides his personal comfort levels?
