People with Down syndrome are unique individuals just like anyone else, with their own personalities, strengths, and challenges. They may require additional support in certain areas but are just as capable of leading fulfilling and meaningful lives as anyone else. Just like every other person, they deserve to be treated with respect, dignity, and acceptance.
