'Will anyone sleep with my Down's syndrome son?'

There is just something about the lady that seems off. She “sells the idea” he is normal and she doesn’t want her son to be with a girl that also has Downs.

Do you think she is doing the "right" thing?

Awww, he's so cute!

My mom tries to ask questions sometimes, but she ends up making it really awkward. Oh mom...

I think it's quite weird, but I guess that if he asked her for the help, she would be obliged to give it....

Why someone would do a story on it is beyond my willingness to udnerstand... stopped trying to understand the reason for some of the weirder media after that pink-haired blob got so popular.

uhh.. i thought people with downs syndrome were sterile. arent they missing a chromosome? or am i confusing my handicaps?

*its an extra chromosome, just looked it up. and men with down's are sterile, women can usually have babies though

Being 'sterile' doesn't necessarily make him 'impotent'.

but it most assuredly prevents him from impregnating any woman as his mom seems to be pushing for.

Re: 'Will anyone sleep with my Down's syndrome son

'I would like to see him with a girlfriend. I would prefer to see him with a girlfriend who doesn't have Down's.'

So what is wrong with him having a girlfriend with Down's?

"i have sold him on being the same as everyone else"
Meaning, "I've told him he is not unique."

And the brothel thing is just sad. Sending him to a brothel would give him one experience, but it would deprive him of another more interesting experience; that of never having been to a brothel.

I know this is an old thread, but I stumbled on it.... as to the brothel thing, I think it depends on where you live and how you were raised.

When I moved to Reno, NV for grad school I was shocked at how accepting people were of the local brothels. A lot of wives weren't upset that their husbands would visit it. It was common on a boys 16th birthday for friends to kidnap him and take him to Mustang to get laid and it wasn't unusual for dad to take the lad out there himself.

It was part of the wild west mentality that still lived in Reno in the early 1980's. I can't say if Reno still has the same attitudes, I know the city has had an incredible influx of people since I left over 25 years ago.

So I am saying, taking the kid to a brothel doesn't seem weird to me.

What can I say? I don't envy those 16-year-olds...

By the way if it works out for this kid to have some kind of sex life, great...I'm even glad his mom could be happy for him in that case.. but it is kreepie for her to kind of set the whole thing up and then hire someone to fake it if need be.

Can he even consent to something like this? If he has mental retardation this could be an issue.

 

[Zeno Lorea]

I can understand his mother. Like any mother, she wants her children to find a mate, especially this one, who is dependent on her for now. If this guy survives his parents, he will need someone to look after him. And it is simply safer if that person does not have any handicaps. Moreover, she can sense more than anyone else that he needs love, and that the love of a parent is no longer sufficient.

Frankly, she is a more rational person than most of us who think in terms of "weird".

That was my thought, too.

Yes, he can sleep with girls but should not have kids.

Of course people with intellectual disabilities can have a notion of their own wellbeing. Their liberty to follow through on that shouldn't be unnecessarily constrained, and it is quite likely he can make a good choice.

Of course it would help a lot if the people around him did their best to lay out good clear choices. I don't think having your mom pimp you out is one of them.
