This is so nauseating to me.  Of course, not everyone can afford the cost of IVF. But still....yuck.

@Mz iMacI haven't watch this one yet so my question may be answered in the program but did the show address the problem of half brothers/sisters or cousins meeting up and getting together not knowing that they are related?  Holland is a small country so the odds of this happening is alarming.  Do the Dutch authorities keep a registry of some kind?

Just wow!  I know that stuff can be mailed and around here a particular bull can be requested.  But breeders keep track.

Now I understand that years ago you had to get blood tests before getting married now  you would have to get a DNA test where he lives to make sure people are not related.  What a mess.

YUP!

Yes, all registries do.  Dutch - the sperm can only be used 25 times per male.  However, there were loopholes which the Dutch hopefully patched up.  That being said, super sperm baby daddy has found a way around the loopholes WORLDWIDE INCLUDING THE USofA.

Spoiler

FWIW - Super sperm baby daddy is currently posting from all over the world on YouTube in case you're interested.  He makes pretty blond blue eyed babies.   He makes housecalls & does not charge.

There is a FB "support" page for the parents.  Also, "reunions" in every country for the children so they will know their siblings to avoid incestuous relationships.
