We don't know what the best genes are or will be. Furthermore as humans we work together to overcome personal shortcomings and develop technological/medical solutions to overcome genetic "issues". ADHD or ASD can be a gift or a curse depending on the environment you live in. I find different cultures/religions to be quite interesting in their characteristics of families. Mormons seem to have larger families. They require 10% of income goes to the church which increases the church's influence, so the church gets stronger the more people are in it. It's like a self-sustaining organism that gets stronger with each generation. As an intelligent individual belonging to no particular culture or religion, I feel less inclined to have children than others I know since it's not part of my values. It's likely that people like myself are going to have a difficult time passing on our genetics. If you want to encourage smart people to have kids, create a religion/culture that makes sense to them and give them that directive.
