What's Up With Down Syndrome? Adoption

In a world where science is getting dangerously close in allowing people to play the role of natural selection, this three-part series will address why Down syndrome is vital in enriching our society… now and in the future.

In the first episode we go to America to meet Stephanie Thompson, the head of the National Down Syndrome Adoption Network who finds families desperate to give babies with Down syndrome a home. We also look at her personal experience in having a son with Down syndrome, who’s been in care for the last decade.

We also meet a woman on a quest to have an embryo with Down syndrome implanted in the hope of giving birth and raising it as her own. If successful, it would be a world-first.
