You can contact the International Mosaic Down Syndrome Association - they are great! The link is provided below.
No. Parents who have a child with Down syndrome do not have an increased chance in having another child with Down syndrome. Everyone has the same chance of having a child with Down syndrome, 1%.
That would mean that the mother is the one with Down syndrome, since men with Down syndrome are sterile. There is a 50% chance that the child will have Down syndrome and 50% chance that child will be born without.
No Marie does not have a child with down syndrome. It was mistaken that she did because one of her children is crossed eyed.
That depends. Men with Down syndrome have been shown to be sterile, while women with Down syndrome are capable of carrying a child, with 50% likelihood that the child will be born with Down syndrome.
My young child has down syndrome(not really).
Yes, children with Down syndrome can get adopted. I have two sisters, both have Down Syndrome, and both were adopted. They are amazing :)

its where some cells are "down syndrome" cells and some are "typical" cells. meaning some cells have three sets of the 21st chromosome and some have the normal 2 sets.
What is the role of a PSW helping a person with down syndrome
It is called a mosaic when an individual has different genome on different cells. For example a person can have trisomy 21 (down syndrome) in some specific tissue and be completely normal on other tissue.
Since Down Syndrome is not genetic and is a trisomy, dominant and recessive genes do not play a role and it is possible for two down syndrome parents to have a child without down syndrome.
How bad is the Down syndrome?Can the child communicate and understand in the class?Can the child read and write?
