Not every DS person is sweet, agreeable and pleasant. Frequently, they are violent, angry and miserable. Sometimes, understandably so. Other times, it's just their nature. Alomst none of them will ever live on their own. This young man is an exceptionally high functioning DS adult. He can read. That's a very notable achievement. But let's not ignore that he couldn't do this without his parents, even though they don't live with him. The roommate situation is very unusual. Very few people randomly living together would do so with so much cooperation. I'm sure there was financial inducement. But what happens when his parents are gone? Will his siblings pick up? Is that fair? These are very privileged questions because some lower functioning DS adults will have no choice but to go into a group home or an institution. I dislike how these documentaries and DS families downplay the harsh realities of the disability.

Thanks we appreciate our audience being so engaged - it's awesome!

I think that Alex is a good friend to all of us me, Lawrence, Gabe and Lily we been friends with him since we were babies long time ago and he is a wonderful person that he is, he does have a wonderful personality and we all loved him, being Down Syndrome is quite difficult for all of us and that we learn about lot of good things and we do learn with our parents

Alex is not a typical DS adult.

Wow. My newborn has down and this comment gives me great hope.

Absolutely! Yes. I had a wonderful teacher during my public school years. He truly believed in my abilities, even though I struggled with certain academics, but I got through it all. I started my first year in college just last year, but the pandemic made it challenging, so I've decided to start back next year in the 3d computer animation program, where I am in Canada. 🙆🏻‍♀️ I love how teachers believe in our abilities. Thank you so much, for your respect.

Naldi SooDiabolic SomethingMoreSinister - what do you mean when you say that if they are raised the right way they turn out just fine? His intelligence doesn't have much to do with how he's raised. It's more about the fact he's born mentally and physically disabled. Alex is very high functioning. Most adults with Down syndrome are not nearly as high functioning as Alex. But even as high functioning as Alex is, he is still a burden to society. He gets taxpayer funded nannies and babysitters and he receives financial assistance for living expenses since he doesn't have the intelligence needed to get a real job. You heard that his job was a charity position made just for him and had a babysitter help him sort mail since he didn't have the brainpower to do it himself at first. He is taking classes and working extremely hard just to be able to stay alive on his own if he didn't get nannies 24/7 to care for him. That's not something normal people have to spend decades taking classes on. As it stands now he's totally dependent on state funded nannies. In America, having DS guarantees you disability benefits for life, and in states like California, free nannies, free housing, free healthcare and free personal drivers to care for them 24/7, since the law recognizes that they don't have the intelligence to care for themselves. We as a society try to screen for and terminate these pregnancies before they become a burden to society and parents have to accept their child will never be independent enough to live on their own. And their intelligence maxes out at about the same as a 3-4yr old toddler. Most Down syndrome pregnancies are terminated at the recommendation of the medical profession. It saves people from a lifetime of severely limited abilities. Some European countries have eliminated DS from their populations by having a near 100% termination rate. Unfortunately the termination rate in the US is going down as parents are told not to worry, the government will have to pay for your disabled child their entire life so you don't have to carry the financial burden of having a 35 year old toddler. You can even make the government give them an apartment and pay a nanny to care for your adult child so you can have your life back. Unfortunately it places a heavy burden on society as the number of DS grows in the US sadly.

+John Appleseed Most high functioning Down's Syndrome people have jobs, though. They're much more useful to society than the the trash who breed for welfare checks.
