He taught me more about life that you can imagine. That being said, there are all kinds of programs that will assist "financial strapped" people with children with disabilities.

I don't think anybody is saying that people with down's syndrome or other major issues are automatically less desirable -- but there are definitely some people who are, for whatever reason, not ready to deal with the pressures of caring for a child who is mentally handicapped or deformed or has major diseases. It's great that there are people out there who can care for them, but I don't think people should be forced to try and deal with an issue that they don't think they can deal with.
