Lyn's story

Interview with Lyn

We meet Lyn, a young woman from Belgium, who tells her story of uncovering – at the age of twenty – that she was donor-conceived.

Lyn also shares her views on the rights of donor-conceived children to know their genetic heritage, and some of the implications for her of not having that information.

For discussion: Which parts of Lyn’s story and perspective resonate with you? What would you do if you were in her shoes (or in her parents’ shoes)?
