What would you think of someone who suggested that the Korean infants she saw looked like they might have Downs syndrome?

It was a comment on this video about abandoned infants in Korea.

She said ” Many of the babies look like they may have disabilities, which is probably a social embarrassment so I don’t expect the fathers to come forward to help. Sad.”

I said, “I didn’t see any babies that looked like they had disabilities. It doesn’t matter anyway. The fathers never step forward.”

She said, ” I noticed a few that looked like they might have Downs. Later in the video. I was wondering why they wouldn’t have been adopted by that later age, as some were older.. Considering there is such huge demand for kids from asia for adoption.”

I said “Downs!!! LOL! Well, Downs would be far more difficult to detect in infancy in a Korean infant than a Caucasian infant, that’s for sure! I guess I don’t know what you saw. I looked at it again, didn’t see anything beyond Korean infants
