One argument against gene therapy is the potential for unintended consequences, such as off-target gene editing and unpredictable changes in the genome. There is also concern about the long-term effects of altering genes, as the technology is still relatively new and its full impact is not yet fully understood. Additionally, ethical considerations around genetic manipulation and the potential for creating genetic inequalities are important factors to consider.

Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
That process is called gene therapy. It involves inserting functional copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder to correct the genetic mutation causing the disorder.
Why is gene therapy successful?
Gene therapy is not always successful. Sometimes when inserting genes into the chromosome, we misplace them, and the original problem is aggravated. Gene therapy can be somewhat effective at reducing symptoms of genetic diseases though.

The gene responsible for the uncontrolled cell division is replaced or removed by the gene therapy. Other main treatment which disease are caused by the defect of particular gene. Other purposes are against some hereditary diseases like Cystic fibrosis or Trisomy.
How does gene therapy effect children?
Gene therapy effects children by helping to cure disease and to lengthen lives. Gene therapy can also be used to eliminate diseases that are inherited.
How is genetic therapy used to treat genetic disorders?
Gene therapy is a method that aims to cure inherited diseases by providing the patient with correct copy of the defective gene. There are four potential approaches to gene therapy:1)Addition of normal gene to replace the function of defective gene. This is gene replacement orgene augmentation therapy.2)Replacing the defective gene with the correct gene. This isCorrective gene therapy.3)Establishment of alternative pathways that bypass mutant genes function4)Change in regulation of normal or mutant genesThe first two are the basic approaches in gene therapy
