Discuss the pros and cons of a ban or allowing it. If you choose to allow it talk about how much should be allowed. Include consideration of what would happen to society and if government funds should be allocated to genetic engineering. Include considerations of what would happen to individuals whose parents chose to not genetically engineer them. Include any extra considerations you may have. You need to use and cite 5 credible sources with title, author, and link.

Past Assignments
Due:
Here are the instructions for the group project. You will be assigned to a group of 4 in class and after listening to the instructions you will have to pick a genetic disorder to get approved from the attached list. Pick one that is meaningful to you and your group and remember that these are conditions that affect real people, so you must be professional and respectful. The template is also attached here. Only one group member will access the template. This should be the most responsible person as they will share the project to the other group mates and will be the one to submit it before the due date.
ONLY ONE PERSON SHOULD SUBMIT, no blank assignments or copies of the assignment should be submitted, it is ok if it says missing on google classroom as long as it is not missing in aeries after they are graded. Submitters make sure all group members names are on the title slide.
