This article in the Times of India describes changing trends in babymaking.
I'd love to hear your comments !
Is it understandable that because we have high expectations from our children, if people want to have children with certain characters, we should allow them to use technology to do so ? After all, isn't this why men look for fair brides, so they can have fair children ? Isn't this technology a logical extension of fulfilling their desires ?
Or is this is a misuse of technology ? Are parents being greedy and too demanding ? Do "designer babies" represent a downward slippery slope where children are treated as a commodity which can me made to order ?
