Recent advances in science and technology have made it possible for genetics to find out
abnormalities in the unborn fetus and take remedial action to rectify some defects which would
otherwise prove to be fatal to the child. Though genetic engineering is still at its infancy, scientists
can now predict with greater accuracy a genetic disorder. It is not yet an exact science since we are
not in a position to predict when exactly a genetic disorder will set in. While they have not yet being
able to change the genetic order of the gene in germs, they are optimistic and are holding out that
in the near future they might be successful in achieving this feat. They may, however, acquire the
ability in manipulating tissue cells. However, genetic misinformation can sometimes be damaging
for it may adversely affect people psychologically. Genetic information may lead to tendency to
brand some people as inferiors. Genetic information can therefore be abused and its application in
deciding the sex of the fetus and its subsequent abortion is now hotly debated on ethical lines. But
on the issue geneticists cannot sq1uarely blamed though this charge has often been leveled at them.

disorders but scientists hope to reduce the cost when technology become advance. This is why much
