Court Reviews Social Media Activity of Sperm Donor

Today, the court in The Hague is considering whether sperm donor Jonathan Meijer can continue making videos on social media. Parents of donor-conceived children demand in summary proceedings that he ceases addressing their children in these videos.

Meijer gained attention in 2023 when parents requested he stop donating sperm, which had already resulted in hundreds of births. The court agreed, imposing a fine of 10,000 euros per additional child born.

The case attracted international attention and led to the Netflix documentary “The Man with 1000 Kids.”
