To what extent would you alter your unborn child's genetic makeup?

Question

I was reading this article about how it is possible to have a "designer baby":

To what extent would you take advantage of this technological breakthrough, assuming you had any resource needed? Would you use this advantage to make sure your child won't have any serious physical or mental problems? Or do you think you'd go as far as to choose your child's appearance?

Answer 1

I hate the idea, but yes, some want to make sure they get the kid they want. There is a novel I read that was about such a designer baby called My Sister's Keeper. Pretty good read. She was designed to be a donor for her sister who had leukemia.

Answer 2

i like surprises.
i don't think you should touch your "un-born child"
what ever happens happens.
that "un-born child" is part of you, why would you change that??
