Insightful research about donor sibling relationships with Rosanna Hertz

from Building your family · host Lisa Schuman

If you are considering donor conception, have donor conceived children, or you care for a donor conceived person, this episode is for you!  My guest this week is Rosanna Hertz, the co-author of the book, Random Families: Genetic Strangers, Sperm Donor Siblings and the Creation of New Kin.   In this episode, we discuss her research with donor conceived people and their genetic and legal relatives.  She explores topics such as: -what it means to have genetic relatives and how feelings can change over time  -how children's ages have can affect what type of relationship they want to have with genetic siblings  -whether or not it is preferable for parents to connect with donor siblings or allow the children to eventually make that choice for themselves   And that's only the tip of the iceberg!  This is an episode not to be missed!
