About this product

Product Information

Life expectancy for adults with Down syndrome has dramatically increased over the last 100 years. Many people with Down syndrome are now living into their 60's and 70's. Further, there has been a marked social shift in people with Down syndrome no longer living in large impersonal institutions but now living in the community, often within their family homes or independently. Children are becoming literate and adolescents are acquiring professions and hobbies. This integration into society results in a higher quality of life. Many previously published textbooks have reviewed the medical and psychological conditions associated with Down syndrome. This book aims to highlight the more positive aspects of the life of people with Down syndrome. Fruitful examples, such as the Special Olympics, camping, arts, digital literacy and citizenship actions are included. The book presents early childhood interventions, transition of children to adults, experience with PALS programs, the role of positive behaviour support and self-directed support, and finally optimal aging. The aim of this book is primarily to educate families, carers and professionals that people with Down syndrome can achieve excellent well-being in physical, mental and spiritual domains. One's ability to maximise their own well-being is a human right which also reduces risks and costs associated with mental illness. We hope this book highlights the importance for children and adults with Down syndrome to be seen as valued citizens of their community and allows their voices to be heard.

    Item arrived on time and was packaged well. The item was exactly as advertised and was amazing value compared to other places. The seller was also incredibly speedy at replying to my enquiries. Although it was not the fault of the seller (the packaging used to send the item was more than sufficient), my figure did have a manufacturing defect (the left hand was broken off). Thankfully superglue put it back in place and no one can tell it was broken.

    Item as described, well packaged, great price, unfortunately it took 9 days to arrive from stated dispatch date and seller didn’t respond to my request to investigate why tracking was still showing it as awaiting dispatch for a number of days.

    Item came perfectly described with good packaging. Only issue is dispatch time and communication takes a while, thankfully came in time for what it was intended. Price is really good and super informative tutorials inside.
