Compare interaction styles between parents
and children post ART and those that conceived spontaneously e
studies the variability between specific ART treatments |
The ART techniques seem to partially
influence the constructions of parent-children’s interactions, with
the ART beneficiaries being described as more frequently misfit and
with interactive patterns of risk. In addition, specific clinical
variables, such as the treatment being ICSI, or the existence of
previous treatments, present themselves as additional stress factors
which raise the tension already experienced by couples in the
transition to parenthood. |

Analyze parenthood after fertility
treatments |
The fertility treatments don’t seem to
have adverse effects on parenthood, as the differences found in
relation to the couples that conceive spontaneously don’t indicate
clinical problems or have implications on the psychosocial
development of the children, having more to do with preoccupations
which should be framed in the specific context of anxiety and added
pressure in which this pregnancy and birth occur. |

Study whether the genetic connection
and/or age of the child influences the will of the parents to talk
to it about the way it was conceived |
Few parents that engaged to ART opt to
tell their children they engaged to these techniques, with the type
of treatment (homologous vs heterologous) being the main variable.
Those that engage to genetic material from a donor present more
reluctance to reveal to their children, this difficulty being
associated to the absence of biological connection. |

Analyze if the parents that engage to
oocyte donation have the intention of revealing this to their
children and if they carry out their intention |
43% of the population of the study
revealed the use of oocytes from a donor to their children as they
intended, 39% still wanted to reveal, 9% were still uncertain and 9%
pretended to never reveal. The main reasons behind the wish to
reveal were to promote an environment of truth and honesty in the
family. The decision to postpone the reveal associated with higher
levels of anxiety in the parents. |

Compare the attitude of the parents
relatively to the gamete donor with those that engage to
adoption |
The individuals that engage to gametes
from a donor have little information about the donors (only physical
characteristics), and they think and talk less about them than those
that engage to adoption talk and think about the biological
families. Adoptive parents have a bigger tendency to reveal their
origin to children than parents that engage to heterologous
treatments. |

Analyze the ideas of same sex couples
about the use of ART techniques in the implementation of the
parenthood project |
The biological bonds are preponderant in
the discourse of women, with a tendency to desire engage to ART,
above all the ROPA method. Men, even when they show the desire to
have a genetically similar child, tend to opt for adoption,
rendering as the main motive the fear of the bond that might be
established, through gestation, between the gestational carrier and
the child. |

Analyze the transition to adolescence in
the children born out of ART |
Families that engaged to ART are similar
to rest in most quality of the parenthood relationship parameters.
The differences noted mostly reflect a better family functioning in
the families post ART, with the exception of an exaggerated
involvement of the parents in a small percentage. |
