Today is World Down Syndrome Day. This quote is from https://www.worlddownsyndromeday.org/end-the-stereotypes
"People are all different. Each person with Down syndrome is different. Each person with an intellectual disability is different.
We don’t all act the same way or like the same things.
We each have our individual identity, interests, likes and dislikes, gifts and talents, just like everyone else.
Having Down syndrome or an intellectual disability is just one part of who we are!
We are people. Treat us like people."
