What are the pros and cons? en-us 2022-04-11 11:56:09 UTC 2022-04-25 19:48:37 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220290 It allows you to know ahead of time if your baby has any genetic mutations so you can prepare in advance.]]> 2022-04-12 17:38:58 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220290 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220514 I think that this is a beneficial to know how to prepare for your child and help prepare for them to give them the best life possible. I think that there are many risks with it too and that the mother can decide if she feels like those are risks she can take. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:07 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220514 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220735 I think it is a good idea so that mothers can be prepared if there are any abnormalities that could greatly affect the life of the child and mother. I think it could be bad if a person used this information to determine if the baby should be aborted or not.]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:16 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220735 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220782 I think it is a good and bad idea to do genetic testing. I think it is good so you will know what you need to prepare for in case your child is disabled. I also think it is a bad idea because you will be very sad and crushed if you know that your baby will have those life-long issues. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:18 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220782 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220908 I'm not exactly an expert on Genetic Testing, but from what I understand, there are both benefits and drawbacks from it. I think it can be beneficial for parents to know if there are any abnormalities with their child because it may help them prepare for any special care the baby might need. I think it can also be dangerous and a bit risky because of the procedures of Genetic Testing.]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141220908 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221295 I think it has its benefits and not benefits. One benefit is that if you if your baby has a problem, you can be prepared to treat it. One con could be that it could have a negative impact on the family. Another one could be cost or privacy issues. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:40 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221295 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221411 I think genetic testing is beneficial so you can be prepared for every aspect of your baby's life and how your life will have to adjust once the baby is born. If you find out that the baby has a disorder, you might have to set aside more time and money for the baby in preparation for when it is born. But genetic testing can also be dangerous because it can harm the baby or the mother if there are problems. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:44 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221411 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221457 I would personally want to know ahead of time because it would allow me to prepare if my baby had a medical issue. I feel like it's better to have things set up ahead of time if the baby is going to need specialized care]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:45 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221457 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221780 I think that it can be beneficial to identify potential health problems in the baby beforehand. By doing so, the parents can research and prepare for those ailments so that they can immediately give the child effective and informed care. However, there can also be a downside. The parents can be very sad and think they cannot handle taking care of their child.]]> 2022-04-12 17:39:58 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221780 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221817 i think genetic testing is ok, it really is up to each person. pros would be that you can find out information about your baby and if there are any health risks, and allows you to prepare for them. cons would be that a lot of people who find out that their baby has genetic issues would not want to keep the baby  - annamarie]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:00 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221817 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221863 personally whatever baby God gives me would not change my opinion on how much I love them. I do not want to know the gender. It might be helpful to know if there are any diseases/ gene mutations so that I could prepare. Some people do not have the resources to care for kids with special needs and choose to not have the baby as a result]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:02 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141221863 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222307 I think it's a good idea because mothers can find out what they need to do to help their children once they are born.]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:18 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222307 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222411 I dont think genetic testing is inheretly bad since it is just a security for the parents to know if any deforminties may arise, but it is not necessary to know since there is really nothing you can do about it unless there is a risk to parent or child. I think there are a lot of pros expecially if you want to know chromosonal issues or even brain and spinal cord issues, but there can be false positives which give parents false hope or worries.]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:23 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222411 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222571 pros: Parents can properly prepare for high risk delivery or babies with genetic differences so they can prepare better. It gives the parents insight into the health of the future child and they can feel connected to the baby before it is born.

cons: Penetrating the babies space, possible birth/birth complications from test. You also might be upset and feel disconnected from the baby if you find out it has abnormalities. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141222571 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141223116 If a fetus is going to develop a disease, disorder, or syndrome and you could know that in utero, you could prepare for what care the child might need when they are born. Genetic testing provides the possibility of a plan for babies with certain conditions to live their lives to the fullest.]]> 2022-04-12 17:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141223116 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141223395 Some pros are that you are able to know information ahead of time and are able to have more knowledge about the genetics of your baby, and if there is anything you need to do to prepare for them. Some cons are there are risks involved with some of the testing, and it might not be necessary to do before the baby is born. If the genetic testing could harm the baby in any way, that would be a huge con. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141223395 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141224367 I think it can be a good idea if there is a risk that the doctor finds out early on about the baby's health. It can help the family to start preparing before the baby is born. I think the risks behind this are hurting the baby if the test goes wrong. ]]> 2022-04-12 17:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141224367 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141224833 2022-04-12 17:42:02 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141224833 annb25 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141348994 I believe that genetic testing can be beneficial so you can see if your child will have any birth defects and the gender. You would be able to better prepare yourself for when you have the baby. But it could be dangerous to you and the baby to have genetic testing done. ]]> 2022-04-12 19:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141348994 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141541877 I think genetic testing can be beneficial in some ways so that you can see any birth defects in advance, but I also think that it could cause complications. I think that it would allow you to prepare ahead of time, but it could also do to more harm then good if something went wrong. ]]> 2022-04-12 22:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2141541877 https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2157259068 Genetic testing can be a good idea for the parents to know if there are actually any deformities or any other irregular cases with your baby, so they will be able to read and prepare. Cons that come with genetic testing can be that it may harm the baby in some way. Some parents may not even want to risk harm being done. Genetic testing has pros and cons, so I think it is up to the parents to do it or not. ]]> 2022-04-25 19:48:37 UTC https://padlet.com/angelaromeo1/jewf56yog3yz2i2z/wish/2157259068
