		<description><![CDATA[In this penultimate article on the top fifteen things I want to tell the new parents of  babies with Down syndrome, I propose that there is one more battle to fight.  That battle is in yourself, and it is the fight to maintain high expectations for your child instead of becoming “realistic” about what he can become.  This battle begins for parents as soon as we know the diagnosis.  It continues, if my experience is any indication, for at least seventeen and a half years.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=einstein-syndrome.com&blog=2867310&post=734&subd=einsteinsyndrome&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...the consensus is that Sarah Palin's facebook post was a political maneuver--whether foolish or inspired--and nothing more.... I do not believe this is a trumped-up offense or silly. The outrage Sarah Palin expressed was just what I have felt when Al Gore talked about the "extra-chromosome right wing," and when a cruel but anonymous person coined, "even if you win, you're still retarded." ...But Gov. Palin's words ring true to me, because they could easily have been mine. I, too, am a family member of a person with Down syndrome. "Retarded" and similar epithets offend me on at least three levels.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=einstein-syndrome.com&blog=2867310&post=710&subd=einsteinsyndrome&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
