I am just curious. I read on these DS topic and a lot of answerers are saying that they will still give birth and love the baby even if the baby has DS or other birth defect. In your country, if you passed away before the DS child, what is going to happen to him/ her if your relatives, friends or other children do not want to take care of them? Are there institutions or homes available that will take them in and take care of them? How much will that cost? Will your country play a part in taking care of them too?
I will abort a DS or birth defect baby but I admire those who is willing to accept this situation and I do not expect answers or preaching about that God has given you this baby or this is murder, you should not abort.
My question is the after care of these children after their parents have passed away. Just want to broaden my knowledge.

A perfect normal child will grow up being able to earn money and maybe get married and take care of himself. I myself have a cousin who has DS and I do not know what will happen to him when his father pass away. I know it's difficult for him to get married and earn money just to support himself and he also has difficulties expressing himself.
