If nothing else a person with Down syndrome cannot have children and carry a family line forward.

Females with Down Syndrome are not any more likely to be sterile than other women.

Men with Down Syndrome are almost always sterile (there have been two documented cases of men with Down Syndrome fathering children).

It probably is not a good idea for a woman with DS to become a mother.
