There are many studies regarding this question. There are genetic issues that can have either a direct or indirect relation to mental health, however, there are other mental health issues that are specific to a person and there are no genetic markers passed either from the parents nor passed to the sibling/(s).

Research is moving forward at a rapid pace in this field and more information should be forthcoming on a regular time frame.

Does Down's Syndrome get worse over time?

It depends on what you mean by getting worse. It can come with physical delays and intellectual disability. The average IQ of a young adult with Down syndrome is 50, about the same mental age of an 8- or 9-year-old child, but this varies.It may take children with Down syndrome longer than other children to reach milestones, but they will eventually meet many of these. Children with Down syndrome are at an increased risk for certain health problems. However, each individual with Down syndrome is different, and not every person will have serious health problems. Many of these can be treated.They do have a shorter life span than other people. In 1910, a baby born with Down syndrome often didn't live to age 10. Today, someone with Down syndrome can expect to live to age 60+, depending on the how severe the health problems are.
