[quote=Anonymous]OP, thank you so much for this thread. It's the most interesting thing I have read on here in a while.

My mind is blown!

It would hurt me to discard or donate any embryos to science(if we had any), but I think I couldn't do what you are doing. The DE would be my child. I would want to know everything that the other family is doing. I couldn't be comfortable with annual updates-I'd need much more.

If I was somehow able to go through with something like this, I would regret it if the other family ended up poorer(financially and emotionally - say divorce and such) than we are. I will be pretty happy if the DE children were better off than the ones in my house (more money, and parents who love and respect each other atlease as much as DH and I do).

However, philosophically I completely agree with you that the children are better off with a little (or a lot) of trauma from adoption than not being given a chance to be born. But practically, I'd be too crazy for this to work out.
