I would like some feedback on how people perceive teenagers and young adults born with Down's Syndrome. I am the mother of a teen with Down's Syndrome and would really like some guidance on public perception.

I have a very special place in my heart for Down's syndrome children/teens/adults, so I can't answer for everyone. What I try to do when I see people with downs syndrome, I try to find something to talk to them about (without talking down to them, of course). I know how cruel people can be so I try my best to make them laugh or smile.
