I thank Professor Golombok. The research was fascinating in the sense that it was so positive. Becoming a parent in an unconventional way does not make one less capable of loving one’s children. I believe the research was really important, and its communication is so important. Professor Golombok said the study covered children born at the millennium and followed them up to the age of 21. Does she intend to continue with this research? It is important to continue it after the age of 21. Maybe Professor Golombok could answer that for me. The research was really good.
