Personal Perspective: Adoptees have a bill of rights; shouldn't donor-conceived people have one, too?
Donor-conceived people desire access to their family medical history, ancestry, and close genetic relatives.Matters of identity, transparency, and connection need to be addressed by the reproductive medicine industry.
However, within the reproductive medicine industry, an evolution of progressive thought about the rights of DCP has unfortunately been painfully slow or non-existent. All too often, financial concerns and motivations trump ethical pathways forward. Should individuals conceived through donor gametes have the right to access information about their genetic heritage and close relatives? Many think so.
"We have the right to our true and full identity. We have a right to a relationship with all biological and legal parents from day one. If people grew up knowing their immediate biological family from the very beginning, it would be totally natural and no one would question, just like no one questions knowing their sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, and grandparents."
