I don't believe you guys!!!!
Ignore the misnomer "designer babies" as there is nothing designer about it!
That is an emotive term made up by people who are against this proceedure and perpetrated by the media because they know the majority of people won't understand.
Designer babies would be children you can design, ie you set out from the start and modify the genetic code in order to have a baby with the properties you wish, such as great athleticism, green eyes, blond curly hair etc.
That is not what this allows dammit!
