Well, Dan, by knowing in advance whether your kid will be retarded or not, you can then decide to abort or not.
I suppose there may be some positives from it in that if gene therapy is perfected, or at least more reliable, problems could be fixed before it's too late. I see more people deciding not to have imperfect kids, though. Of course I'm anything but an expert in the gene therapy field, so I don't even know if that's possible.
