Pointing to legal and ethical dilemmas, this book presents a crisis in modern family law’s treatment of collaborative family-making: gamete contributions, surrogate motherhood, adoption, functional parenthood, foster care, and kin caregiving. It challenges the law to account for relational realities that fail to conform to legal categories.
