If parents could predict problems before their child is even born, should they take whatever steps necessary to save their child from future pain? This ability may not be as far fetched as it seems. Scientists have developed the ability to find genetic mutations and to perform genetic modifications on embryos before the child is even born. Proponents of Genetic Modification on babies overlook ethical issues; however, the benefits don't outweigh these concerns because everyone is beautiful in their own way, babies getting sick and being unhealthy is not worth it , and this modification should …show more content…
Genetic mutations are not always perfect, they can also be harmful to humans.Designer babies owners are allowed to pick and choose the characteristics for these embryos, such as if the want a baby with curly hair and blue; they are more likely receive that baby. According to “ Dawn of the designer baby “ this process is going to unlock for plenty of people. “Also open the door to ’superior designer babies’, with genes modified to improve physical appearance strength or even intelligence”(Victoria Allen, page 1). Normal embryos parents do not pick how they want their baby to look however ‘superior designer babies’ parent are able to do so. For an example if a parents was to want the strongest baby in the world scientist are able to do the mutation. When having scientist do this process they can possibly get one of these embryos sick or even to death before being birth. These owner just think they are going to get the perfect baby and that cannot happen because of so many chemicals going into the body, one of the results is having different type
