Most American donor insemination programs include a policy of complete confidentiality concerning the donor of the semen. This is the result of a long legal tradition of American constitutional law. However, some slight abridgement of this body of legal decisions might be very much in the best interests of children arising from donor insemination, and even--in most cases, in fact--the donors themselves. With regard to the children, the factors involved are both those of genetic counseling, should the need arise, and psychological development. Of course, as at present, the donor must be relieved of all responsibility, both legal and financial.
大多数美国供精授精项目都有一项政策，即对精液捐赠者完全保密。这是美国宪法法律悠久法律传统的结果。然而，对这一系列法律裁决进行一些轻微的缩减，可能非常符合供精授精所生孩子的最大利益，甚至——实际上在大多数情况下——也符合捐赠者自身的利益。就孩子而言，涉及的因素包括必要时的遗传咨询和心理发展。当然，目前捐赠者必须免除所有法律和经济责任。
