how important do you think it would be for you to have the option to meet the donor (or to have basic biographical information about her/him)? My sense is that I would want that option (and I think I'd feel the same way were I adopted). But I'd be really interested to hear other people's views. I'm asking because we're considering known vs. anonymous donation ourselves. There is, from the prospective parent's point, something easier psychologically about anonymous donation (although it's also possibly more nerve-wracking not to be able to know basic things about medical background, etc.) But I keep coming back to the perspective of the future child/adult. What do you think?

I guess this message must seem like a set-up because no one has jumped in to answer! It IS a genuine question, though, and I'm a real person facing this decision. Surely someone here has faced it herself or at least thought about it? I'd really appreciate hearing people's ideas.
