The advantages of embryo screening are that after the procedure parents find out if their child/ embryo has a allele for a genetic disorder / disease or if they actually have the disease. Embryo screening is also beneficial because it allows parent to plan the future of their child.

Why do some people disagree with embryo screening?
people disagree with embryo screening because after finding out if their embryo has a genetic disorder (e.g cystic fibrosis or Huntington's disease) they may wish to abort it. the procedure may also cause possible harm to the mother or child.
What are the ethical issues involved with embryo screening?
When parents find out that the embryo has some sort of genectic disorder they may destroy the embryo rather thab raise the child with a disorder
What are the disadvantages of embryo screening?
Involves the removal/destruction of an embryo's allele or even the embryo itself. May go against religous groups as all humans are seen the same in the eyes of God.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of embryo screening?
It reduces the posibility of a child haveing a poor quality of life.
What is embryo screening?
Embryo screening checks an embryo to see if it's carrying any alleles for a genetic disease (e.g. Huntington's disease or cystic fibrosis) so that the parents would know how likely it would be for their offspring to have a genetic disease. And the reason this is often perceived as a bad thing is due to the choice the would be parents would then make. They would be deciding wether to have a termination because of the genetic disorder. Of course the parents could potentially want to know just to plan the future and an ethically challenging situation would not occur.
What are the positive and negatives of embryo screening?
Positive: Screening can identify embryos that will develop severe genetic diseases, thus allowing doctors and parents to choose a course of treatment or to terminate the pregnancy. Negative: The power to screen embryos may result in people screening for relatively trivial things or in extreme cases, eugenic selection of only embryos possessed of specific traits.
