But isn't there under present law a system in place where the child can try to contact the parent and the parent can choose whether or not to remain anonymous? The choice for the donor under the new law is to donate or not. If he chooses to donate, he might be faced with the 'knock on the door' 20 years later. And 20 years is a loooong time. I for one know that I don't stand by a few of the decisions I made 20 years ago (or the reason for those decisions for that matter)
