Secret Vatican guidelines for priests who father children have been revealed thanks to the efforts of a campaigning son of a cleric, the New York Times reveals.
Irishman Vincent Doyle was 28 when he discovered that the Roman Catholic priest he had known as his godfather was in truth his biological father.
The revelation led him to set up Coping International, a support group for other children of priests, which he says has 50,000 users in 175 countries.
