tolerance level for the disabled

[Yawn]

do we have a higher tolerance level for disabled ppl regarding wat we deem is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour?

for example frequently when im at work we r disrupted by disabled ppl with their carers. they throw tantrums and start screaming v loud....lie across the floor whilst screaming. i know its not uncommon for these ppl to get violent and hit their carers v hard (not to mention many disabled ppl have a large amount of brute strength particurly downs syndrome 1s).

so my question is, do u allow disabled ppl to continue in their disruptive behaviour? wat if the issue starts directly involving u? i know when i was at skl in my tutor i had a disabled person who used to pick his nose, the plaque off his teeth and then start pointing it towards me and offering it to me. at wat point does this overstep the mark? how many times should i have to tell this person that he cannot continue wat he is doing b4 i have to take the matter further?

clearly this type of behaviour is completely unacceptable for ur average human being. how far can we allow our exceptions for these ppl go? at wat point does it overstep the mark? when do we put our foot down and say NO?

this is a little off topic but can u determine if ur child is disabled or not before u give birth to it?
if yes then i would get rid of it
sorry if that offends anyone but like susan has just said they are very disruptive and abusive. why would anyone want to go thru that?

ok im going to explain myself further

im currently facing a battle...and i am out of options. i want to hit a disabled person (badly). but i feel like this is.....wrong.
and i will be badly judged for my actions.

a down syndrom guy get on my bus regurally, even if its full he will push his way through people swinging his bag left to right hitting people in order to get a seat or MAKE someone get up out of their seat so he can sit, when he only travels 3 stops (10min max walking distance)

SOME CAN be nice and normal but i hate the ones who give off this kind of behavior because the reaction they get and use it to get what they want!

It depends on the disability.

As for the topic at hand, the answer is yes.

There are screening tests that can assess the chance of a women having a baby with Down's Syndrome. At the women's first scan they look at the nuchal translucency which assesses the quantity of fluid collecting within the nape of the fetal neck. At the same time they also offer a blood test known as the quadruple blood test. However these only look at risk factors and are not diagnostic.
If the risk factors turn out to be quite high then a further diagnostic test is available:
There are also diagnostic tests that will give you a definite diagnosis of Down's syndrome and, sometimes, other abnormalities. These are:

• Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
• Amniocentesis

At the second ultrasound scan which is usually between 18-20 weeks of the pregnancy the sonographer can scan to checl for any physical abnormalities for the baby.

bit extreme?

I do agree that some are disruptive and use their disability as an excuse to cause upset and havoc if they don't get their own way but I dunno how it can be sorted.. it's a tricky one.
