This is an interesting question. We have evolved, but evolution is so slow that we do not notice that our children are actually inching away from us genetically (hopefully for the "better"). However, if we inject large artificial changes, what will happen? Will we reject our children?
For a certain period in development, children reject their parents, naturally. But then we often come back (often when we are parents ourselves). But, if our children have large genetic changes from us, artificially done, how will our children look upon us? As pets, perhaps? Or mere caretakers?
An interesting (and scary) thing too, is whether higher intelligence - as measured by these metrics - leads to "colder" humans, who make more rational decisions, such as euthanizing the old and weak, which would then include the parents.
