[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I needed DE, asked my sister, and was devastated when she refused. We ended up going anonymous instead and in the end I think that was the right choice for us, avoiding all kinds of legal and emotional land mines. My kid is awesome, by the way, and bizarrely, looks a lot like me (people always remark on it), even though the donor looks nothing like me!

But there's definitely the appeal of a genetic connection and known history.[/quote]

I would have refused and I am very close to my siblings. It seems pretty entitled to even ask. [/quote]

I see nothing entitled about asking a simple question.  Hope others are more thoughtful, generous, and willing to help than you seem to be.[/quote]

Puke!! This is all kinds of messed up. I agree that you should not ask family members for their genetic material. They don’t want to be a parent.[/quote]

It’s a few cells!  It’s not “being a parent!!”

You sound weird.[/quote]
