If I had the choice of deciding which genetic trait my child should get, it would probably be to regenerate itself. Just like a damaged liver can repair itself, a child's body can heal itself when the child hurts him/herself. Honestly, the idea of a designer baby can be scary at sometimes. If parents have the power to genetically modify their own children, most parents will just put whatever into the baby and try to make the perfect child. Many things can go wrong with trying to modify a baby. Most possibly, during the procedure, many things like a mistake from the doctors to changing one or more things to the baby can result in damage to the child as well as the parents. No, it is not okay for you to genetically modify a baby. The child should be kept the same when it is born. No parent should have to waste time and money trying to modify their "Perfect Baby".
