The wait is over
After many years of waiting, the time has finally come when we can have a child tailored to us. Every parent wants their children to be beautiful and intelligent, and now that dream is about to come true. Until now, we had to settle for idealizing our children and accepting that they would not always be as we had imagined them. But that has changed, now we have the possibility of deciding what we want our child to be like before he is conceived. It’s incredible to be able to have so much control over reality and avoid many headaches. However, there will always be those who criticize this option and prefer surprise, arguing that it is more ethical to accept children as they are. But everyone has the right to choose and we should not judge those who decide to use this technology to have a child tailored to them.
The ideal personality
When it comes to our child’s personality, we all have our preferences. Some want him to be outgoing and cheerful, while others prefer him to be more thoughtful and calm. In my case, I want my son to be a person committed to social causes, who travels to developing countries and cares about others. I also want him to be smart and able to solve problems creatively. Of course, I want him to be independent from an early age, so that he can take care of himself and contribute to the home. And, of course, I want him to speak impeccable Catalan with a touch of Lleida accent. Everyone has their own preferences and it is wonderful to be able to choose our child’s personality.
Health as a priority
In addition to personality, health is a fundamental factor to consider when having a child. We all want our children to be healthy and not have any genetic diseases. We don’t want to complicate our lives by taking care of them, but rather we want them to make it easier for us. Thanks to scientific advances, we can now avoid unpleasant surprises in the future and ensure that our children are healthy. Some may argue that this is unnatural, but everyone has the right to decide what they want their child to be like. We should not judge those who choose this option, since we all seek the best for our children.
The importance of choice
In short, having the possibility of choosing our child’s characteristics is a wonderful advance. It allows us to control reality to a certain extent and avoid many headaches. Everyone has their own preferences and we should not judge those who choose to use this technology. At the end of the day, the most important thing is that all children are loved and cared for, no matter how they are conceived. The reality of having children has changed and we can now shape our children’s personalities in ways that were previously unthinkable.
