I'd remove the propensity for auto-immune diseases that runs in my family. I would have also liked to remove the Tuberous Sclerosis that my nephew has. I wouldn't mess with physical appearance or personality.

You bet I would...such things as selfishness, being unkind, being sarcastic, arrogant, condescending, pretentious, prejudiced,having a rigid mindset,feeling "better" than others or superior in some way, whining,blaming others,complaining,intolerant,judgmental..for starters! :)

I would not change any personal or physical traits. I would however filter out any potential health issues.

No. I don't believe in "Designer" babies.

No, I personally wouldn't. I love my kids just the way they are and am not a big fan of genetic engineering.
