Which sounds really scary at first, but:

"Now the London-based couple fear their children could inherit his reported schizophrenia, which can take up to 40 years to appear, and are demanding millions of pounds in compensation from the Xytex Corporation."

40 years? And of course, there's no guarantee it shows up at all.

And apparently, there's an army of the donor's kids out there:

"A Canadian mum who had also used his sperm alerted them after his email address was wrongly received by the women.

She told them the donor was Christian Aggeles, who had fathered at least 36 children
."

Side note: is it fair to post the name of the father (who isn't being sued) but not the names of the couples filing the lawsuit?
