Why is it important to discuss fertility preservation with a child?

To the extent that you can ask the child, and the child is conversant and can talk about having children even if the child is sufficiently young like, say, 10 or 11. So, then you actually can talk to the child. It is very much important to talk to them not necessarily for some sort of legal protection, but it’s a moral thing to do. And, of course, once the child gives his own assent as opposed to consent which is a legal term, and once a child give his own assent, it’s more likely that he will actually follow the regimen as prescribed and will actually be cooperative with the treatment. So, and then, of course, then the child will be aware that he can decide what to do once he does reach that age of maturity.
