if we had the technology for you to completely customize your child’s personality in the womb (their hobbies, interests, favorite foods, etc), would you do it or would you allow your child to develop on their own?

That sounds boring and a lot of what I think I would enjoy is raising them to be their own individual and seeing who that is

Anything of that nature is extremely immoral and unethical. Sometimes science just needs to fucking stop I swear

Can I customize just enough that they don’t turn out to be psychopathic or anything? Or do I have to go full in

If you’re having a child just to make them behave and “enjoy” whatever you like or want them to be good at, then that’s self centered parenting. You’re not there for the child, you’re there for you. Family is much deeper than that

Kinda like living a life that’s scripted, the fun of life is growing into being your own person and the choices and ride
