  1. I think it good and bad why I believe this is because if the they know that something with be wrong with there genetics and want to prevent it is the good thing, the bad thing is to make a designer baby for their own benefits

    1. I agree. I think changing the genetics to prevent a disease or whatever is a good thing.

  2. I think there are circumstances where creating a designer baby would be somewhat appropriate. The circumstance would be due to medical issues. Even though there are many reasons why creating a designer baby would be unethical. I think you should just let children be born the natural way. The way they are supposed to.

  3. I think it was okay for them to create a designer in their situation. If it was for any other reasons than to save their first child. Everyone deserves a chance at being healthy so thats why I think its okay for the parents to do that.

  4. No. I don't think it is right. God made everyone for a reason and you are born the way you are for a reason. But I can understand the situation in this book.

  5. I do not think it was ethical to create a designer baby. I don't understand why you would create a kid just to try and keep one kid alive. The don't even know if Kate will live with all the treatments from Anna. I understand not wanting your kid to die, but why would you rather let them suffer just so you do not suffer because they die.

  7. I think there are certain situations when creating a designer baby is okay. I understand that they want to keep their child alive. It was okay for them to create a baby in this situation because they didn't know what else to do.
