What is another word for saviour sibling?
Pronunciation: [sˈe͡ɪvjə sˈɪblɪŋ] (IPA) 
A saviour sibling is a term used to describe a child who is conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF) with the purpose of providing life-saving stem cells or tissue to an ill sibling. However, there are other terms that are associated with saviour siblings that essentially have the same meaning. Some of these include "designer baby," "genetically modified baby," or "sibling donor." While these terms might seem to have negative connotations, they are widely used to describe the process of creating a child who is genetically compatible with a sibling in need of medical treatment. Despite the ethical concerns that surround this practice, saviour siblings have been instrumental in saving the lives of many children.
