Imagine, sitting in a classroom full of students. Everyone is understanding the concepts being taught except for a few students. Those students ask for extra help after class. While helping all the students, one approaches. They ask for help because they are slow at learning everything and their brain doesn’t process that information as fast as all the other kids in the room. This kid is different from the others. This kid has Down syndrome. While the others may think they are struggling, in reality, this kid has to try twice as hard just to learn something simple. Many people misunderstand Down syndrome as much as they misunderstand the people affected by the disorder.
