I guess after having known some people with downs, I dont feel pityfor them . So many of them are SO much happier than we are. It doesn't take much to make them happy. Something tiny happens and it makes their day, it makes them so happy, and if something bad happens, they dont get super upset and have it ruin their day like it does to us, they're upset for 2 mintues till something tiny happens and they're happy again..

It's one of those, they dont know better kind of thing. They dont know what it's like to be "normal" and most of them are happy how they are. Don't pity them, treat them like people, not with kid gloves.
