Sperm donor sued for increasing incest risk with 550 children.
A Dutch musician and prolific sperm donor who has fathered about 550 children around the world is being sued by the Dutch DonorKind Foundation for allegedly increasing the risk of accidental incest. The group alleges that the serial donor has lied about the number of children he has fathered. Under Dutch guidelines, donors are not allowed to father more than 25 children or impregnate more than 12 women to prevent inbreeding, incest or psychological problems for kids who find out they have myriad siblings. The foundation will ask the court to order Meijer to stop donating and to have all his stored sperm destroyed — unless it is reserved for a woman who has already given birth to one of his children.
