Deaf Parents Demand Right To Deaf Children Posted: 2 years ago by 2manyusernames
RNID has made a statement that deaf people should be able to select an embryo that will be born deaf and throw out ones that would be able to hear. RNID does not speak for all deaf people and some are saying that the statement is taken out of context. That they want the right to implant embryos that are deaf when that is the only viable embryo.

descriptionBecause it would be uber-cool! Yeah, instead of wanting the best for your child, a group in England is demanding the right for parents to shuffle through embryos discarding each one until they find one that will likely be deaf as they are.
