Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to create teaching materials for those who became parents by donated sperm to tell about this fact with AID children. To gather information about telling, we surveyed New Zealand telling's actual and domestic AID parent's perceptions of telling.
The teaching materials (booklets) are based on the experiences of Japanese AID parents. In the first half of the booklet, the experiences of AID parents were posted, and in the second half, messages from the born people and researchers were posted. We made 500 volumes of teaching materials and distributed them to the sperm implementation facilities, counselors and nurses, and infertility self-help groups. This booklet was evaluated as "useful as a teaching material for patients", "Help us understand patients" by treatment facilities, and "thinking positive telling" by infertility parties.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究で作成した冊子「私たちが大切にしたいもの‐AIDで家族になった人たちの告知への思いと実践‐」は、AID で親になることを検討している人が、「生まれた人の出自を知る権利」の保障にどのように関わればよいのか自ら考えるための一教材となる。本冊子は、GID（性同一性障害）のカップルやレズビアン、シングルの女性など多様化する家族形成を検討している人にも活用できる。また、本技術を用いた家族について国民から理解を得るための基礎資料になると考える。
