What happens in surrogate pregnancies. Is it the name of the woman who gives birth that goes on the cert or the name of the woman who will be known as the mother??? |

Maurice, whatever happens there has to be sperm and an egg:) I don't give a toss whether a child has one mother and one father or six mothers and no fathers - doesn't matter as long as a child is loved and nurtured. The only important thing is the child and every child should have, wherever possible, the opportunity of knowing who their biological parents identity. A law that diminishes this right just to cater to the perceived needs of those doing the parenting is wrong. |

i stand corrected. I didn't realise anonymous sperm donations had stopped. |

I heard this on the radio this morning. Need to read more about it but not impressed. Birth certificates should tell the truth, simple as that - not just for the legal aspect but for the sake of the child. Everyone should have the right of knowing who their biological parents were. |

That's the point Claire is making Berona. |

You have really brought up something for us to think about! I was under the impression that only the biological father's name can be on the certificate - and these days, the father has to sign his permission for this to be shown, if not married to the mother. Otherwise, the space for 'father' is left blank. |

I have to say I dont agree with that,surely the original birth certificate should have the birth mother and nothing more.(if by donor) |

Teresa morning darling, surely a B maybe in brackets or something to show who the birth mother was. |

Marilyn a sperm donor can also be named so I don't know if this means that a child can have 3 parents on a birth cert |

OMG, can you imagine the brick wall that would cause? How many incorrect trees would be growing out of something like that? |
