Anyone who would allow a corporation to help them decide the direction their child(ren)'s future(s) should head in is, in my opinion, an unfit parent. Time to give up belief in the Great God, Money. Let children be children - you are an adult for a long time.

So we don't allow women to be professional athletes in many sports yet now we can genetically determine athletic ability. Very creepy. I file this genetic testing stuff in with eugenics and the desire for a "pure race." Wow.
