A PERFECT BABY

avatar
(Edited)

There are some powers that is withdrawn from humans and I really wish that we have such powers because so many things would have been changed and maybe things will favor us. Maybe it might not even favor us the way we are expecting it. Sometimes the way we see things are not really the way the are. Things are different from God's aspect. We just need to accept our faith and continue with life the way we see it.

Having said that I still have something to say concerning the topic at hand. A perfect baby. Hmmm! Can Humans ever attend to any perfection? This is what I doubt. Even if such opportunities were given to us, things will never be perfect the way we want it. As long as we are human, we will still experience that imperfections and wished that things were different. First of all, what is perfection?

Perfection is the act of faultlessness. This is also attributed to something divine or complete excellence. From the definition above you will agree with me that no matter what we do, we can't have a perfect baby. God decided to take such ability away from us. We can not be perfect and even if we decided to do or make a perfect baby, it will still not be completing perfect. There will still be that aspect of man in that child that will still make that child imperfect.

WHAT ABOUT THE SEX OF THE BABY?

Sex is a determinant factor for some families to accept that a child is perfect. I am a victim of imperfection. I said this so that we can understand that for some families for that child to be perfect, it has to start with the sex of that child. My mother had ten children already before my arrival and the only reason why she had me was because she needed a male child seriously. Where I come from a crippled male child is better than a very beautiful and stable female child. Hahaha 😂. Can you imagine that? This ideology alone made my mother to have up to the eleventh child and still there was no male child. So how do you think that such family will treat me? Another Female? I grew up knowing very well that I was not needed. My parents needs a male child and then I came. But thank God for letting me know that heaven needs me and I am very special. Even when my parents don't need another female child, but heaven needs me and that is why I was send.

There was another family that use to live near our house years back. The family already had seven male children and the woman was never at rest. She still wants to have a baby girl and it was as if heaven made sure she never had a baby girl. Any time she tries to have another baby, a boy still shows up and that was not good news for them. While my own family was in dare need of a boy, there family was in need of a female. What an unbalanced world!

Modifying the genes of a baby will not bring perfection. This is Because no gene on earth is a perfect one. If you think that if that child become fair in complexion, tall and speaks English very well, still that child can not be perfect because there will still be some part of that child that will still indicate imperfections in that child. All we need to do is accept who we are and improve daily.

Parents who still have imperfection in them can not remove such traces from a child because they don't know what exactly is perfection. It is only one that is perfect that will know perfection when he or she sees one.

All the images used in this post belongs to me.

I absolutely agree with you Ma when you say humans can never be perfection, perfection is absolutely unattainable. I think my family is almost an opposite of yours, and non of us ever experienced any form of rejection from my parents. We are 4 onye with just a girl, my mother needed another girl, and that resulted to the last male child being born😀

That's a pretty damn way to have been brought up... I know exactly what it'll feel like, it's a crazy thing for real but well, here you are without gene editing breaking boundaries and doing well

Sometimes, we just have to take things the way they come

First of all, those powers were withdrawn because man sinned against God and that’s why Christ has died for us to reconcile us back to the father.

It’s sad that even up until today different customs still hold on to that believe that a male child is way better than a female child. I’m glad you didn’t let that fact define your life. There is nothing that we as humans can do to make something perfect except God is involved because he is the only perfect one. We all are just striving towards perfection.

Thanks for sharing this with us, mama. 🥰

Humans are not perfect. The earlier we accept that we can never be perfect, the better. Altering genes might make the child better in many ways, but it will never make them perfect.

This has been a challenge especially most part of places I have ever visited in Nigeria where parents keep struggling to see how they can raise a perfect baby. Hmmm wow the big question remains who is perfect? If you aren't perfect why are you expecting a baby? The earlier we learn to accept what God orchestrated for our lives the better.

Just imagine the scenario you shared...in terms of sex how some parents are so desperate to have either male or female. God would help us.

The only one who owns perfection will make things perfect which is not determined by man. Humans we have too much taste and that cannot be fully met.

Contentment and the heart to train our kids properly no matter the gender will give a good result

I completely agree with, modifying the genes of a baby will do more harm than good.

I believe that each person has the right to choose what he wants in his life, and among those "free Albeldrio" elections is being able to select a child more resistant to the sick, with greater intellectual abilities, and other things. I do not see it as perfection, but as an improvement of the human being, although I understand the religious end of the people who have their faith in the Church.
