    Abstract:
    The most important practical application of medical genetics is the genetic counselling. It is based on the specific burden of potential offspring which involves severity and treatibility of expected disorder, possibility of prenatal diagnosis, risk, etc. The separation of specific and random burdens is also very important. In Hungary a new counselling method entitled "information guidance counselling" was introduced which means an intermediate position between directive and nondirective counselling because of the expectation of family planners.
