Do down syndrome suffer from low self esteem?

Although this condition contains the word "down," it's a person's name, not an emotion like "feeling down." It was named after John Langdon Down, who discovered this syndrome back in the 1860s. Down's syndrome (also called Down syndrome) is a form of mental retardation or intellectual delay; people who have it also look different (their face is shaped differently), and some have a speech impediment.Unfortunately, there are some cruel people who make fun of children who have this condition, and that certainly makes these kids feel bad. Children with Down's syndrome have all levels of disability-- some are only mildly delayed, speak understandably, go to school and get a job; while others are very much delayed and require help with almost everything they do throughout their life. But no child deserves to be teased and bullied: kids with Down's syndrome are often very sweet and affectionate and they hate it when people are cruel to them. So, yes some of them might suffer from low self esteem, but not from their condition-- from the fact that some people make fun of them for having it.
