Year help: My son has was diagnosed with down syndrome at birth, this was - Help.com

people with downs are the most loving children, it will be harder than if you had had a child without any problems, but your child will be able to live as normal (whatever that is)a life as possible.

tell her to stop looking at the downs and to see a child who wants the love of its parents and who needs to be nurtured… there was a program about a midget child on once and what made me cry was when the girl had done a painting and written on it “I am lucky to have a mum like i do, most moms would have given a child like me away”

do you get what i want to say? the child is human too, try to make your wife look at the situation another way

i didn’t nean anything by it. just accept the child as you would have if the child had been born with no problems. offer the same oppertunities like main stream education, i don’t know what else to say really i mean i know the milestones will be reached slower but your child will get there.

accept your child has downs syndrome and is not a downs child that way you see the child before the disability, as others will. we have a child with downs at my childs school he is neither seen or treated any differently to any other child,
