I think that a tough question once you've already been a parent and know how kids want answers to questions. I would not donate casually (such as to a clinic) but I might if I had a family member that wanted a baby. Perhaps if I had a brother or sister that couldn't conceive and wanted a child I would have considered it. But after seeing the field day that the courts had in my country with the "Baby M" case I wouldn't touch a casual donation with a 10 foot pole. Of course, once the "parents" had their say in court, it was the child that suffered. She was divided between two sets of biological parents and that could not have been easy for the kid.
