Debating 'designer babies'

There is an endless debate about ‘designer babies’ in the world today. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) has become very popular in the UK for curing children’s illness. Even a child that has not been born yet can cure a sibling’s illness. Many people believe that if they wanted to sex select then they should be able to do it when they want to. It is often argued that this new interest is an inevitable corollary of new techniques and innovations: that because of the invention of in vitro fertilization techniques. Science is running ahead of ethics and regulation. Today’s opposition to new reproductive technologies is often articulated by those who consider themselves radical. The ‘designer babies’ issure provides a particular focus for many fears, because it is about parents and children. It feeds into another powerful prejudice of our times: the mistrust of individuals’ motivation, and their impact upon others.
