if you could engineer your baby, would you?
 

tough question.

would you pick and choose which of yours and your partners traits would pass on to your child if you could?

or would you pick and choose certain ones to add/not add, and leave certain others up to fate?

discuss.

Absolutely not! Don't fuck with nature, that's my motto! :biggrin:

I recently had a son, and wouldn't want him any other way than how he turned out! It sounds cliche, but I don't believe man is responsible enough to handle what he creates... :eek:

And I don't think it's a good idea to disturb the balance of nature with something like this...

Nope me neither, imagine all baby's having high iq's there will be no dumb people like us left to post at this forum.

But like arnus says don't fuck with mother nature.

But if I can leave out some habits from me the whole world would be sooo grateful after 20 years ..
But dont fuck with mommy nature :)

only if I could give him super powers ;)

seriously though, if your family had a history of cancer and science could ensure that they could prevent it genetically in your baby, wouldn't you want them to? the question is, where do you stop? what if the doctor said, "while I'm fiddlin around I can make him smarter and more athletic too." ?

ah, aug - that is the question... that is the question.

toughy, which is why i posted it to stir some shit and see what others have to say.:p
