Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Reading some of the responses from 's " support groups " posts kinda ruffled my feathers a bit. I think we should shout to the world that our children have MOSAIC down syndrome, because the world needs an education! And if there are people out there unwilling to be taught something new, that's not our problem!! I would love to know how many parents with full trisomy 21 children have no clue that there are THREE kinds of Down Syndrome. So it's not just the world that we have to start educating, but our own community, the Down Syndrome community. Let's not be ashamed our our childrens rarities,let's not try to fit the mold of what society thinks is 'ideal', let's not worry what others might think about us or about our children (hey, anyone else ever get dirty looks when your MDS child acts out in public cause they don't see the Downs and just think you're a rotten parent?????) If the tradition DS support groups aren't supportive.... we should do something to change that... ::::getting off of soapbox:::::: anyone wanna borrow this thing??
