Samenvatting:

What does parenthood after donor conception entail? How do you tell a child that you are not the genetic parent? What role does the donor play in the family?

For heterosexual couples with fertility problems, as well as lesbian couples or single individuals, donor conception can be a way to fulfill a desire for children. However, forming a family with the help of an egg, sperm, or embryo donor often comes with many questions and doubts.

The new, updated edition of this book addresses the most frequently asked questions from (prospective) parents who formed their family after donor conception. It covers all life stages a family goes through, from parents with a desire for children to a family with adult children. At the same time, "Different yet ordinary" offers useful information for family, friends, and professional caregivers.
