Parents do continue the pregnancy even with genetic testing results undesireable.
"Because of this particular controversy, there is an active group of people who advocates banning genetic testing. Genetic testing is proving very useful in identifying certain types of conditions and ailments that actually can be corrected before the baby is born. Therefore, it is as a process of playing a role in regard to pregnancy for which people have any specific disagreement. In addition, there are many parents who elect to have genetic testing undertaken so that they can be prepared for a baby that might have some sort of serious problem, sort of serious health or physical issue. These parents do not desire to terminate a pregnancy but rather desire to be well prepared for the birth of a child that will have special needs." (Remy Nara, Ezinearticles.org)

I think Genetic Testing is a great idea, not just for the baby but for parents as well. This could be used for time to prepare parents on what will happen. The baby could benefit from this just by the new medical treatments being found everyday. If the parent found out that this could be threating or fatal to the unborn, then they should be able to choose if they want to abort that child.
