Creating the Perfect Child
“Bring your partner, grab your
seat, pick up your baby catalog and start choosing.” This article talks about how with the advance in scientific
knowledge of the human genome, we may one day be able to look through a
catalogue (well not actually) and pick out the feature, which we want our child
to have. Some techniques of
screening are already in play where embryo’s can be selected by sex and checked
for certain disease-bearing genes.
Lets remember that these can affect other issues with pregnancy and
health issues.
