Biomedical Ethics

Consider the case of Zain Hashmi - he needs a baby brother or sister to save his life. In creating this new child many embryos will be destroyed. The new child may feel like it was created for 'spare parts'

1) what ethical issues do you see arising from this situation?
2) What do you think - should the Hashmi's have been allowed to create this new life using genetic screening?

Start and continue a debate!!
