A 41 year old sperm donor from The Hague, Holland, Jonathan Jacob Meijer is being sued for fathering nearly 550 children worldwide.
In his country, a sperm donor cannot and must not father more than 25 children.
A woman who conceived a child with his sperm in 2018 and a foundation called Donorkind that defends the rights of children conceived with the help of donation have filed a lawsuit against the sperm donor. The woman who filed the lawsuit believes that only legal action can stop this donor, who had already been denounced in 2017 in the Netherlands by the Dutch Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (NVOG) when it realized that he had already donated his sperm to more than 100 women. As a result, the society urged all clinics and sperm banks to stop using the dishonest donor.
The man in question had used social networks to communicate his desire to make it easier for women to have children through insemination. The biological father of more than 500 children is currently in Kenya where he is trying to avoid the justice of his country.
