Using a known donor
Known Donor 1
1) a known donor talks about the negotiation process; 2) reproductive law expert Ami Jaeger talks about the legalities involved (18 minutes, 2008)
First is Jon, who has been asked by three women to consider being a known donor. He talks about the kinds of issues they discussed, and in his case, why none of the requests actually turned into a "yes."
Second is Ami Jaeger, long-time third-party reproduction law expert, with the Santa Fe-based BioLaw Group. She and I talked about why a written contract with a known donor is important, why the donor's name should not be on the birth certificate, and even how the law might perceive the parenting roles if a child someday has contact with the donor (known or open-identity).
