Being able to see whether or not a child has a disease or severe disorder would give the parents time to prepare for the road ahead, in terms of financial ability to afford the care that the child would need and the ability to care for a child with severe disabilities. These doctors are also working on fixing certain degenerative diseases through genetic alterations.]]> 2017-03-15 16:24:07 UTC https://padlet.com/182colen/gcysys56qnhq/wish/160304258 182colen https://padlet.com/182colen/gcysys56qnhq/wish/160305809 These babies are not ok when docotrs will alter any trait as long as parents are willing to pay. Certain doctors say that within 10 years, they believe they’ll be able to change eye color and have an 80% accuracy rate. They also think that in the future they’ll be able to give the child “athletic abilities” or make them more academic.]]> 2017-03-15 16:28:53 UTC https://padlet.com/182colen/gcysys56qnhq/wish/160305809 182colen https://padlet.com/182colen/gcysys56qnhq/wish/160308660 https://designerbabiesethics.wordpress.com/
