This article
http://www.livescience.com/culture/090111-designer-babies.html barely acknowledges the 10 babies who died so that this couple could reduce the chance that they would have to deal with a baby with cancer. We are already killing Downs babies before they have a chance to inconvenience us. Now cancer-prone babies. Soon it might be short babies, obesity-prone babies, gay babies, maybe even babies with the wrong color eyes. We are not preventing any particular baby from having these issues, as the article implies. We are just killing the ones who do.
