    I think that fetal genetic testing can have a lot of benefits. It allows for problems to be detected earlier in pregnancies and gives the doctors and parents more time to discuss how they want to proceed.

    I think that fetal genetic testing for the sake of engineering a "model baby" is absolutely outrageous. Allowing this testing for this purpose will only make unengineered siblings feel awful about themselves because they weren't what mommy and daddy wanted.
