#DownRightPerfect

It was the biggest shock of Nao and Shaun’s lives to learn their newborn had Down syndrome. But two years on they feel like a regular family, blessed with an extra chromosome.

Hello. I have also a younger brother who has Down Syndrome... and he is also deaf. Some people might imagine how hard it is to communicate or to raise him. When tough times come I would search some videos like this to brighten up my days to make me realize that my family isnt alone. Everybody loves him.

[@wesrm1]

Some researchers say Down Syndrome kids can be bilingual if they grow up hearing both languages. I wonder if they can also learn “fluent” sign language. (Fully knowing ASL, not just basic small talk signs like “how are you today?”)

I have a younger brother with Down Syndrome he is the most precious gift Gift from God. Emilee is so cute!!! ❤️🌻

This takes me back so many years My biological daughter is 44 and then two adopted Downs that are 32 and 28. The early years were so fun to be able to see the accomplishments. They are all very independent and wonderful adults. They have 4 big brothers that are amazing and have always been there for their sisters. This is a great video.

[@rohan34]

That's amazing... You're great

[@breannazilinski7534]

That is definitely one of the most adorable children I have ever seen in my life. I’ll leave it at that.

[@georgeboehringer5530]

Judging by your last name you should be proud to have such a family member

My daughter has Mozaik Down Syndrome. She has been a gift from God. She had a rough start but is now 32 in two weeks. I am so proud of the woman she has becomw

[@maureenwagg5305]

I have worked with small kids with Downs Syndrome. I absolutely loved them. As children, they are so cute but...how is raising them as teenagers and young adults? That must be a huge challenge.

[@emilyalcorn3547]

It can be hard just like raising teenagers into adulthood can be hard as well! They have the same needs, wants and emotions like everyone else but the joy far outweighs the hard times. My sister has Downs and is 39 now! She lives in a unit with a flat mate and support workers. She has just made her 20 years working at Coles 😊 She was sooooooo proud! She works 5 days a week for 4 hours per day. Everyone in the Shopping Center knows Kate and she has so many friends at work! It’s not all roses and rainbows... Kate has had to overcome many obstacles in her working and private life but we come through the harder times and they pale in comparison to those hard times. She sees the good in everyone and has such an innocence about her! Anyway my point is... it is going to hard but it is 100% worth it 😊

My son was born with down syndrome, he is almost 2 months old and he is in great health so far, I wouldn't trade him for the world, my hope is he stays healthy, that was my main concern during my pregnancy , your little one is so adorable , best wishes with everything, she made me smile so I can just imagine how much joy she brings your family ❤

[@alexandragr4391]

In a few weeks i'll start at a new kindergarten with kids who have down Syndrome and i'm so excited. I seriously can't wait to work with them. This is a great video to understand more about the situation at home. Thank you!

[@wesrm1]

Does the class have one of those mini trampolines with handlebars?

[@taniya8455]

I know a mom who have a child with Down-syndromme. By the families love and education provided to him, now he is so smart..... He plays 'chenda', an Indian drum-like instrument. Everyone in this village talks about that mom as a strong super woman.Everyone here is proud of that family. Me tooo...... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dsmom6898]

My son has Down Syndrome. To me, he is Down Right PERFECT. I would not change one thing about him. He loves everyone & he never meets a stranger. More people should be like him & his friends who have Down Syndrome too.

[@audreybear6188]

Tamara Roettger my sister had Down syndrome and she is perfect! My mom went through a depression with it but now she has brought so much joy

[@wesrm1]

They seem to love trampolines. Why is that? I mean all kids do but it seems like DS want to bounce on them way more.

[@OsakasFentanylAddiction]

I hope you get physically tortured for saying more people should have Down syndrome

Should be called ups not downs

[@flyby3079]

Its only called Downs syndrome because of the doctor who named it, Dr John Langdon Down.

[@kimlatta9433]

It is named after after John Langdon Down, the man who discovered Down Syndrome.

[@nirajkumarbharat]

I came here to get an idea of down syndrome. I am just amazed to see this video. Emilee is so cute and her elder sister as well. Love to all.

[@allthingsjenny3179]

I had my daughter 3 months ago she was in the nicu for 23 days so I understand how u feel but we are home now and she is a happy girl as long as you do good hand washing and dnt be afraid to tell family and friends to wash their hands or not to get near her if they have a symptom she will be good, Not long ago we all got sick and our baby didn't. We used masks and I also think breast milk helped alot.

[@nicolecostley3422]

Jenny G My wee woman was nnu for 3 months due to her having vsd and ASD now we are just waiting on her date for her surgery already been through cataract surgery and has gained a lot of muscle strength. She is doing amazing at home been home for just over one month and my other 3 children are amazing with her thought my 19 month old was going to be the one I had to watch but she is the gentlest of them all. How some people can be so harsh and disrespectful towards children with down syndrome they are no different than other kids just need a bit more care. Congrats on ur little one hope all goes well for you xx

Sorry , about what happened

[@danhinden1098]

my sister Amanda has downs syndrome, yes the early days were a shock to all of us and yes the world has changed to accept them but there was a time many years ago that they were not integrated well enough with society but together all of the families blessed with downs have forged a right place in the world for them to stick TOGETHER and play as important a part to life as anyone else, who can possibly judge whats "normal" I will never advocate for downs abortion and for those quacks that think they can eliminate them pre birth well you are not g-d!

[@flyby3079]

@@jager896who are you to say?NO ONE except for the person carrying to child has a say to whether they want an abortion or not. Its people like you that support laws in the US that make women’s rights not so much a thing anymore to their bodies. There are people too unfortunately who have gotten raped or sexually assaulted. I guess they should keep their babies too even if they dont have the financial means? Makes total semse though to police what a womam should do with her body.

Faith in word and deed and belief in religion, Sharia and the method that God Almighty revealed makes you completely live like them, the religion of innateness, and I am not talking here about the actions of people who offend this religion, because we are in the end humans we do the right and do the mistakes because we are not perfect, but I am talking about religion and its spirit by itself And if you don't believe me, hear one of the sufferers with down Syndrome the Holy Quran, and notice comfort, tranquility and reassurance when they're listining to the words of their Creator The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Every child is born on the fitra and it is his parents who make him a jew or a christian. God almighty said: (So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to truth. [Adhere to] the fitrah of God upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of God. That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know). - Ar-Room 30
