But guidelines on how to handle late disclosure should be provided to parents in need. There is a website in Swedish on donor-conception that includes info on late disclosure kunskapsguiden.se/omraden-och-... I know that the Donor Conception Network has material on Later telling in English. #ESHREjc

It is good to emphasize the child's right to know and that it's always better if the parents (preferably both) are the ones who disclose the donor-conception. And that it is never too late! But parents need to be prepared that their child can have negative feelings they did not tell earlier #ESHREjc

I agree. And, importantly, longitudinal studies of donor-conceived families also provide access to DCPs that are not self-selected through their interest in (their) donor conception. #ESHREjc

That is most likely true. Many studies show DCPs take their parents feelings into consideration regarding exploring donor-info. But for some it could be that good family relationships make the donor less interesting, i.e. they have their family and maybe are not that interested in genetics. #ESHREjc
