Self-reflection of this activity

Finally we finished the whole R.P. process! It's been fun, I'd say. But sad and scary at the same time, coz it basically means that we also finish our Junior year!! Well...Personally, I like to share stuff on the weblog, and I think that this is actually a pretty good activity. However, you know...when things become crazy around the exams, you really don't want to fool around on the weblog. On the other hand, it's good to have an assignment that allow us to feel free to write anything we feel in the process.
I chose "Designer Baby" as my Research Paper Topic this time. I'm glad I chose something that I'm interested in. Although sometimes some big words did drive me crazy accidentally. I had fun tho. I wouldn't have known so much about Designer Baby if I didn't choose this topic. That's why i appreciate we have this activity. We can always learn something while we are doing the research. And we have this formal presentation in front of our classmates which makes the whole thing more serious. I like it tho. Give it an extra formal touch to the project! I enjoy the whole process, and glad that we pull it off at the end. (:

Argumentation of my R.P.

With the aid of the advanced technology, people now can turn a dying child into a healthy one. The geneticists can help people select the perfect embryo to become a savior or a cure. However, this is far more complicated than it looks like. There are risks in the procedures, and it also relates to ethical problems and child’s psychology. Therefore, we should not legalize this practice.
