Update #2

The facts below are about:
Limitation of Designer Babies on human


Original paragraph:
The process of creating a “designer baby” is often questioned because of it’s shaky moral platform. Though there are certainly some positive things that can be obtained from the use of genetic engineering used on unborn babies, but it is often wondered if parents will have the “right” reasons to genetically modify their baby, or if reasoning will become more superficial. Here are some of the cons associated with the genetic engineering of babies:
  • If the process is not done carefully, the embryo could be accidentally terminated.
  • The ability to “change” as humans will falter.

 Key ideas:
  • It is often wondered if parents will have the “right” reasons to genetically modify their baby, or if reasoning will become more superficial.
  • Cons associated with the genetic engineering of babies: If the process is not done carefully, the embryo could be accidentally terminated.

Paraphrasing:
Even though Designer Babies have many benefits, there are also some limitations on this kind of treatment such as this technology is not 100% safe yet. It could create classes between non-designer babies and designer babies. Geneticists are not perfect people and may not be 100% true to evaluate each gene. It is more than likely a mistake will be made, other than that this procedure is not cheap. All designed and planned by their own parents, however this also can represent on how designing your own babies can cause a big problem when something goes wrong.

  1. mellita, use darker font colour and start making your final post. the caption for your pictures and movies should not be too long. just one sentence. reduce the font size. explain your pictures and movies in your paragraphs and not on the captions.
