Would you ever choose the gender of you baby if you could? A lot of people said that they would. On CNN.com there was an article that talked about people choosing the gender of their unborn child. A technique called pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is used to test embryos to see if they carry any type of disease that one of the parents may have carried. This same technique (PGD) can be used to choose the gender of the unborn child. Some people are thrilled about this idea because if they have one child of one gender then they could choose the gender of their second child to balance out the family. Some people are not happy about gender choosing because they fear that people will be more likely to choose a gender more dominant in their country.
My Response: Personally I think that it is great that people are able to choose the gender of their child. It could benefit people when it comes to what they want their family to be. For people that don't like the gender choosing, they should just not use that technique. Overall I think this could have a good outcome.
