Q & A on Cord Blood Banking

A Yahoo!7Answers discussion about cord blood banking features a worth-reading discussion of whether banking a child's cord blood for later medical use at a private facility is worth the cost of the investment.

As you'd probably guess, the answers vary considerably. Some of the participants make good points, others are clearly suffering from a lack of information.

If I were trying to make the cord blood decision, I don't think I'd rely exclusively on the opinions of random non-experts, but the conversation itself is interesting and probably thought-provoking to those who are addressing the topic of cord blood banking for the first time.
