It's said that people with Down's have cognitive delays, but looking through you're replies you seem well articulated with your thoughts and sentences - most of them are actually quite witty, hitting the social ques spot on, making jokes and such, as anyone else would. I say this in all honesty, not to sound patronizing, I hope.

My questions is this: is it easier for you to chat with people (friends, strangers) face-to-face or through text (online, SMS etc.)? How does it differ for you?

Also, are you interested in Down's in general e.g. about it's causes, how people who have it are/should be treated socially? Do you discuss Down's with people?

You bet, I had to read through my question for at least 15 min before posting, trying to figure out if it's too awkward or not. :D I would say, it's the puberty on your part, and maybe other peoples reaction towards your Down's on theirs. Either way, there's no need for it, in my opinion. I've got a feeling you could probably hold a kick-ass presentation on awareness and I hope you do, because you've already broken all the prejudices I've had towards people with Down's. I thank you for it and your IAmA! :)

Have a great Summer!
