== == * I did some research and learned that men with Down syndrome are usually sterile. Most women can get pregnant and have children. Since there is a high risk of Down syndrome in the baby (35%-50%), many times the pregnancy would end in a miscarriage. But many Down syndrome people have had children. * Technically yes, but it's unlikely. Fertility is greatly reduced in both males and females with Down syndrome, although there have been a few cases of males fathering children and females bearing them. * Actually, there has only been 1 case of a male fathering a child.

No. Autism is not like locked in syndrome. The two are totally different. A number of children with Autism have damage to a particular part of their brain. Since they are children, many of them can be taught to use a different part of their brain for communication. On the other hand, several different commutation problems have been given the catch all diagnosis of Autism. With Locked in Syndrome the problem is not in the brain but with the brain's ability to communicate with that part of the body that communicates with the outside world.

Is autism a form of Down syndrome?

The symptoms, characteristics and outcomes of these two conditions are quite different. Down syndrome is a developmental disorder. Rett syndrome is classified more specifically as a pervasive developmental disorder. A child with Down syndrome can also have a pervasive developmental disorder. At least one girl has been confirmed as having both Down syndrome and Rett syndrome by laboratory testing. Rett syndrome is a neurological and neurodevelopmental disorder that mostly occurs in females and is the result of a chromosomal abnormality. It is caused by mutations in the methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene in many of the cases. Infants with Rett syndrome seem to grow and develop normally at first but then they begin to lose skills and abilities before age three. The child loses skills rapidly with purposeful hand movement and speech among the first skills lost. The ability to walk is also lost. Rett affects approximately 1 in 10,000 children. Children with Rett syndrome will grow into adulthood but will need constant care. Down syndrome is one of the most frequently occurring chromosomal abnormalities affecting as many as 1 in 753 children. It causes delays in physical and intellectual development. Children with Down syndrome have certain physical characteristics including a flattened facial profile, low muscle tone and an upward slant to the eyes. They have developmental delays but should be given every opportunity to develop their talents through education, vocational, and independent living training. With appropriate support children with Down syndrome can become quite successful adults. An abundance of information relating to both disorders is available online.
