I am thrilled about having An Adult Down Syndrome Clinic in our area! However, a pet peve of mine is please put the person first. Our kids are kids first NOT Downs! We are not Downs patients. We are patients with Down Syndrome. You can't manage Adult Down Syndrome maybe behaviors and medical needs of Adults with Ds.
