But clearly Gary was speaking Have in terms of begetting and giving birth...having a baby.

Possession??? So children are things to possess? Chattel? How self-serving you reveal yourself to be!

(also have got) possess, own, or hold : he had a new car and a boat | have you got a job yet? | I don't have that much money on me | he's got the equipment with him.
• possess or be provided with (a quality, characteristic, or feature) : the ham had a sweet, smoky flavor | she's got blue eyes | the house has gas heat.
• ( have oneself) informal provide or indulge oneself with (something) : he had himself two highballs.

• possess as an intellectual attainment; know (a language or subject) : he knew Latin and Greek; I had only a little French.
I repeat from yesterday: if you don't know what words mean, don't use them ... and certainly don't try to make smarmy distortions of words that you don't even know the definitions of
