    AbstractParents of children with Down's syndrome should be interviewed with their child as soon after the birth as possible. The child should be assessed carefully by a paediatrician experienced in this field. The parents should be given ongoing practical support and a treatment programme should be provided for the child. The birth of a handicapped child is always a tragedy for a family but with sensitive care of the child, parents and other siblings, much can be done to help the family readjust and become realistically involved in the child's care and education.
