Pugs are so darn cute <wink wink> )

I don't think the kid has Down syndrome. He is very tall and thin (not to

say kids with DS can't be tall and thin, but you know) with very large

hands, long fingers. Maybe he has Fragile X syndrome... but I think he's

just a kid with out-turned ears (no syndrome attached). Nice photo though!

I love old photos! And I love Pugs! )

Cheers,

Sara

And here is another...

How the heck can anyone see that she has Down syndrome?? She looks like

maybe she was born without eyes and is blind maybe... but DS? Eh! Sometimes

I think that people think that all people with special needs have DS.

(Especially when the kid has his/her mouth open!)

Oh well... cute pic, I guess.

Cheers!

I second that! He doesn't look like he has DS. His features aren't quiet right. Pam

I think these pictures are very interesting. I happen to have a picture, taken sometime in the early 1900's of two children. The baby may have Down syndrome....but the picture is just gorgeous.

Who the heck writes the descriptions of these photos!!!! I can't make out

any of the features of any of the subjects in the second photo - how on

earth did they assume that the child has the features of a child with Ds?

Does anyone write to Ebay to let them know that their descriptions aren't

quite accurate?!

**Sigh**

Ebay doesn't write the descriptions. Each individual seller does, and I'm

afraid any information you might relate to the seller would fall on " deaf "

ears, so to speak. I love buying and selling on ebay, but you do get ALL

kinds on there.
