I am so impressed by the whole cast, their parents did good and should be very proud. It's an uplifting show that I look forward to every Tuesday!

I’m late to the party on this show . Just binged watched season 3-4 it was all I could find online . it has moved me so much . The parents are incredible and resilient . the young adults are very endearing . I hope any money made from the show helps aid their care and independence

I remember when my mom had me when I was a baby I couldn’t walk so I went to physical therapy

I do love the show and admire the individuals. I worked with developmentally disabled adults for many years and these individuals are lucky because they have the financial backing and support. Many individuals do not.

I love watching born this way

You're all amazing love from Newfoundland. Cannot wait for Season 3 - I wish I could meet you all .

yep the parents did a awesome job with these angels such good manners and so funny and actually i think have a better head on there shoulders than my daughter

The parents did a great job raising their kids because my boyfriend and I have a disability and we are planning on moving in with each other but if we do it odsp will be cutting me off with my money so I will be getting my own place but right now I am living with my sister to help her because this is her first time living on her own

first

I HATE the word "Mongoloid".

I wonder what Sandra would say if docotors could fix Down syndrome in the fetal stage. Would she still want Sean the way he is? Or would she rather he have been fixed so he could have an actual full human experience of not being mentally handicapped and dependent on nannies his entire life. She couldn't possibly wish that he be like her little helpless boy until he passes in his 50's if he had a chance to become a real man, get married and have children and have a career and contribute to society instead of just taking from it like he does now.

The doctors pretty much had it right. John will be dependent on his parents his entire life. And of course Rachel can never have a baby, she's very much a very young child herself mentally still. She's 35, but she still lives at home (despite spending 4 weeks in a mansion with Megan for the show) and will live with her parents until the dementia progresses to the point where she'll have to go to a nursing home. Hopefully she has a few lucid years still left, but it's pretty obvious that she is not one of the lucky few who won't get Alzheimer's as she ages. A majority of Down syndrome adults who live to 40 DO GET Alzheimer's. I think THAT fact is a huge reason why any pregnant woman with a defective fetus should seriously consider sparing that child the agony of slowly losing their mind and their entire identity. Alzheimer's is a horrible disease- and anyone who knowingly has a Down's syndrome baby should know that you are more than likely going to put that child through the agony of suffering from Alzheimer's. personally, I couldn't knowingly do that to another human being. It's just selfish. I understand in situations before the screening was available- but now there is no reason not to screen and help eliminate this disability forever. Together we can spare our children from this particular mental and physical disability. Down syndrome also means physical disabilities too - especially with the heart, etc. having a partially formed heart is not just "diversity" or "what makes them special". It's a physical defect that we spend millions on surgeries to try and fix so they can live past 20. But make no mistake, Down syndrome is definitely NOT something you ever would be happy to hear your child has. It's something you deal with if the screening didn't catch it.
