Rebutal Pre-Writing

I think this topic of multiple biological parents will become more of an issue in the future with progressing scientific knowledge. Scientists discovered that my combining more than two parents DNA, disease carrying genes can be replaced with other genetic information. There are many issues today with serogant mothers and their rights to the children they carried. I believe that the rights belong to the parents who are intended to raise the child, but in these cases the same two parents donate the egg and sperm. In cases of multiple parents, the ones who raise the children should have the rights, the child would most likely not have one dad and two mothers raising them together. I liked this topic because it deals with science and moral issues that are somewhat controversial. Just because you have someone's DNA doesn't mean they should have the complete rights of you. In sperm banks, the fathers aren't seen as parents who have rights to their children, they didn't have anything to do with raising the child. Most scientists and psychologists believe that children are affected both by nature and nurture. Both have an influence on the child but, I think with multiple parents, nurture is more influential.
