Conceiving People: Genetic Knowledge and the Ethics of Sperm and Egg Donation Groll Daniel
Each year, tens of thousands of children are conceived with donated gametes (sperm or eggs). Some know they are donor-conceived. By some estimates, there are over one million donor-conceived people in the United States and, of course, many more the world over.
Some know the identity of their donors. Some do not. Others never will.Questions about what donor-conceived should know about their genetic progenitors are hugely significant for literally millions of people, including donor-conceived people, their parents, and donors.
But the practice of gamete donation also provides a vivid occasion for thinking about questions that matter to everyone. What is the value of knowing who your genetic progenitors are? How are our identities bound up with knowing where we come from?
What obligations do parents have to their children? And what makes someone a parent in the first place?In
