Up Front: Dropping the A-Bomb, in reply to B Jones,
There's nothing black and white here. New Zealand currently forbids mothers using pre-implantation testing to select the gender of their baby, regardless of their personal preferences. We do allow mothers to screen for disability and to terminate that pregnancy more easily than on other grounds as has been discussed. That may be a clue about the relative social value our representatives place on different groups of people.

he would love his future children, even if they didn't have his vision impairment
