Confessions of a Sperm Donor: Hundreds of Kids

Kimball always wanted children, but he never expected this.

Neither do a lot of others like him who have found myriad children, according to the DSR's founder, Kramer.

"Initially some reach out because it's ethically the right thing to do or to share medical conditions or to make themselves open to the kids," she said. "What they don't realize is that they aren't just donating a piece of genetic material, they are creating people who are their children."

"They are very surprised by the emotions that come up when kids walk and talk and think like them," she said. "There can be a profound sense of connectedness. These kids are their children."
