[quote=Anonymous]I can think of tons of secrets that people INTENDED to take to the grave with them but that leaked out. That seems like a misguided goal. I agree that children have the right to know their genetic history. E.g. what if you are possibly the carrier for a genetic disease, which might be then passed on to your current biological daughter. It would be cruel for a child born of a donated egg to believe that he or she is also at risk, though you would know the truth. Also, if you see use of a donor egg as a shameful secret for you or your child, it doesn't seem like a positive reproductive choice for your family.[/quote]
