      Babies are conceived without their consent.

      In case of a C-section, they are born without their consent (implying that they would rather grow up inside the womb :P (look, idk what babies think when they don’t come out, but we sure aren’t asking them whether they’d rather stay in there))


      I would rather be asking if Dr. He had the parent’s consent before modding the foetus.

        Obviously the notable, unusual, unethical thing here is the non-consentual gene editing, not the mere occurence of birth
