The truth is we don't know

But it sure is painful for a close family member to remind us of that

We really don't know if he will be able to live in his own.

We don't for how long he can go in a main steam school.

We don't know if he'll need to go to a day program later in life

We really don't know if he will be able to get a so called real job.

We don't know what his future holds but we do know is he'll get the best love, support and care anyone will ever need.

We will love him and care for him no matter what happens.

This is our son and we are proud to raise him.

This amazing son of ours born with down syndrome is prefect!

There's no reason why he couldn't go on to live a full and relatively normal life. Some people with Down Syndrome are able to work if they are trained by someone who understands their learning style.

Living alone isn't always the big, scary barrier it looks to be, either. Maybe he could start out in a place where he has access to on-call wardens to buzz for help when he needs it and see how he goes from there.

Don't let family members tear him (or you) down.
