[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] Simon: Your example is really completely different. You are stating a possible future where people are enhanced. A situation where you'd have to chose to have the enhancement. Presumably by that point, the enhancements would be standard, and a parent would have to chose [i]not[/i] to have them. But even then, this is different, as hearing is a standard sense, one that most people are born with. These parents are not just ignoring medical advances. They are not saying "We don't want our child to ever use antibiotics". They are deliberatly, from birth, ensuring that the child is born with a disability. They say that when the child is old enough he can choose whether or not to have a hearing aid. Fine. So why didn't they have a "normal" baby and then let it deceide whether, at age 18, it wants to smash its ears in with a hammer? [/QB][/QUOTE]
