You can not decide whether or not you child will have a genetic disease, you may not even know you have it. But you can find out by looking back into your familys history and finding out if anyone had a genetic disorder. If somone did you could have your embryos screened. This is where a doctor looks at some of your fertilised eggs (embryos) and they will tell you if any of them have a iherited disease. This way you can pick a healthy child .
May people think screening is wrong and that it's immoral. Others think it is wrong because it could damage the embryos.Many people screen thier embryos because: they don't want their child to suffer from a inherited disease, they can't afford to look after a il child, it would be to emotional for the coupleor because they already have other children to look after aswell
