Another thing to consider is that there are levels of disability within each syndrome. Some people with Down's syndrome reach the point where they are able to cope with, and interpret, the world with the competancy of a young adult . Others are more severely disabled and will require more in terms of care. If a child is always going to require full time care, the parents are not necessarily able to guarantee that: or at least, they may not be able to guarantee loving care.
