RIDICULOUS EXCUSES NOT TO BE INCLUSIVE | World Down Syndrome Day 2023

Over the past few months, with the help of associations from all over the world, we have been asking people with Down syndrome and their families, what excuses they have heard for being excluded from education, sports, jobs, and other opportunities. Some of these excuses were so incredibly ridiculous that they deserved to be brought to life and properly celebrated with a film. Find more #RidiculousExcuses on TikTok, our valued media partner for this year’s initiative.

Thank you guys for letting me do this project it has been a lot of fun doing this and I couldn’t be so proud of myself for my own good work

“We’re not prepared for this?” “We already have one of those kids?” I mean, the excuses are all awful, but those two are the worst. A disability of any kind does not reduce a person to a nameless, non-specific pronoun!

Anyone taking the piss out of this Advert is because its meant give you that response its Dark humoured people who do it lol, its ironically really funny, but not because we have an issue with Disabled people but because its our way of handling difficult scenarios, I like old school Frankie boyle for the same reasons

I know this is supposed to be serious, but I just cant take it seriously

When the man said "We have not enough chairs" I was wondering if it was because of her having Down's Syndrome or being obese..
