My partner have been together 2 years as of Sunday. We are engaged to marry and are excited to start a family soon after. We have been discussing starting a family and we are at a crossroad right now as far as the best choice and decisions that should be made. I do not know my father. My mother got pregnant and did not contact him and tell him that she was pregnant with me so he doesn't know about me and my mother will not give me any information about him. Because of this situation I want to be 100% honest and forthcoming with our children. I would prefer to use someone that we know so that if the child should choose to want to know information about the donor he/she can. I want my children to have answers if they ask questions. I want to know who the donor is so that I can give the child pictures or any information that they would want. My partner would prefer it to be an anonymous donor. She feels that us as our child's parents are enough and that it would be better if we use someone that we do not know, she feels as if she would be replaced as a parent. She also brought up the point that the donor may decide later that he would want a more active role in the child's life which would be confusing to the child. I was wondering if any of you have faced this same issue. Maybe you could offer some advice on the big decisions that are facing my partner and I and our new family. Thanks in advance for your help!
