Very well,

Are women who increase their risk of producing birth defects by putting off child birth, in favor of a career, until their late 30’s or 40’s “dumb” or “idiots”?

Are people with a genetic history of a condition “dumb” or “idiots” if they choose to ignore that history?

I wouldn’t say the are “dumb” or “idiots”. What adjective would you use?

That is a good question. Ask your parents.

How about Human?

We mere humans do dumb stuff all the time, get used to it, it's not likely to change soon.
