[quote=Anonymous]It could be really helpful if the four of you could sit down with a social worker or family counselor (someone with experience with donor families, and preferably lgbt families) and have a structured conversation. Some things to think about: will the donor relationship be open knowledge to the kids? to your family? to the world? What if you and SIL's family end up having serious disagreements about parenting? Would your husband have any say in how the donor children are raised? What if the couple wants to have more children in the future, would your husband continue to donate? I know couples who have done this for whom it has worked great and been a happy, drama-free experience, and others for whom it has been a complete shitshow. You sound sane, and if the other three adults and your families are also sane, I think you should definitely consider it, but it is a big deal (and also, as others have pointed out, Virginia sucks).[/quote]
