There should be no effects, really. The parents just have to love and care for the baby just a if he/she was a normal child. He/she shouldn't really be treated differently. A:Frequently, the family reacts very negatively to the appearance of a Down's child. Most families don't have a keen sense of the myriad of developmental disorders a kid can be bron with -- many far more greivous than Down's -- and they tend to overreact. There's also a tendency to seek blame. This is not only a negative, but also rather futile, as the causes of Down syndrome are many. Best to say it's no-one's fault. This is rather a shame, in that Down's kids are a delight to work with and actually can do quite well in life, handling school and, later, employment quite successfully. I think the best cure for the confusion a family with a newborm Downs kid feels is education. And then a gentle coming-to-terms with a situation that. while not ideal, is not the end of the world, is called for.

Because as much as you love this child, it puts a burden and added stress on the whole family. The brothers and sisters become a little jealous because the down syndrome child require more and special attention. Family members are required to learn how to care for this special child and there might be some resentment feelings at times.
