Yes, I believe in perfecting genetic engineering in order to wipe out genetic diseases or faults that make us prone to diseases, so one day it could be a rare thing to be born with a severe handicap and more people can have an equal chance of living a full and successful life. Since we've developed advanced technology to prolong ourselves and almost everyone gets a chance to breed, humans are now stunted from evolving to our best, which also makes us very weak from recovering from a massive disaster, so genetic engineering could also help make us stronger and smarter as a whole. If I could choose, I would want a child that didn't have to suffer from severe autism, schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, thyroid/Grave's disease, breast cancer, or many of the other things that run in my family.

Yes.
Not their appearance, but if you can alter the genetics of children you can make it so any genetic conditions are not passed onto them.
Which is a good thing.
