Update #3

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


Original paragraph:
Some ethical concerns held by opponents of designer babies are related to the social implications of creating children with preferred traits. The social argument against designer babies is that if this technology becomes a realistic and accessible medical practice, then it would create a division between those that can afford the service and those that cannot. Therefore, the wealthy would be able to afford the selection of desirable traits in their offspring, while those of lower socioeconomic standing would not be able to access the same options. As a result, economic divisions may grow into genetic divisions, with social distinctions delineating enhanced individuals from unenhanced individuals.


 Key ideas:

  • The social argument against designer babies is that if this technology becomes a realistic and accessible medical practice, then it would create a division between those that can afford the service and those that cannot.
  • As a result, economic divisions may grow into genetic divisions, with social distinctions delineating enhanced individuals from unenhanced individuals.

Paraphrasing:

There are ethics of designer babies, one of them is that it could create a division between those who can afford such services and who cannot. Therefore economic division could be developing into genetic divisions. Another argument that supports the designer baby technology indicates that parents already have a high degree of control against the results of their children's lives in the form of environmental choice, and that it should release several ethical issues encountered by genetic selection.
