On Down Syndrome
Available Now ... Making a Case for Life: A New Definition of Perfection
What if you are told that your child will have Down syndrome? What happens to your dream of producing the perfect child? Nothing need happen to your dream. You only need to alter your definition of perfection. In this book, we will explore the myth of the perfect child, along with a number of popularly -- held yet erroneous beliefs about the negative impact of giving birth to a child with Down syndrome. At the same time, we will begin to develop a new perspective on which characteristics are truly the most desirable in a changing world. With only a slight shift in our perception, we can clearly see that the extraordinary individuals dismissed for centuries as disabled, actually have a vitally important role to play in the world, and indeed may even hold the key to our positive advancement as a human family.
