Todd Sampson’s Why? on ABC and ABC iview S1E1 – Armed with a single question, Todd Sampson embeds himself with those who challenge conventional thinking – not to condemn or celebrate them, but to understand them.
The complexities of unregulated sperm donation sees half brothers and sisters all around the world. We meet a father who has children in the hundreds. Many of the mothers can’t afford IVF and instead choose to go down the private path to take away some of the anonymity and costs associated with donor clinics.
Donor Dads is not a story about right or wrong. It is a story about autonomy, intention and consequence. It explores how hope, desire and access are reshaping the most fundamental human act: creating life. In a world where biology can be shared with a message and a meeting point, regulation lags behind reality, and the long-term impacts remain unknown.
