        Should rules not apply to inspirational people?

        Quick Fixes:
        – is + not = isn’t
        – inspirational
        – Down (or Down’s) syndrome is named after the doctor (John Langdon Down) who described it, thus Down in this case is a proper noun.

    I can see both sides of the story , but I mostly agree that Eric should be able to play basketball . He may be 19, but he inspires everybody. Also he may have Down syndrome but he is a person.

      Students are not using the lessons as a chance to learn and master the concepts (several lessons with zero out of ten) simply to get to Live Mathletics.

    I can see both sides of the issue. I agree with both sides of the problem at hand. I think that they should let him play for part of the basketball season and then see if he has an advantage at the game, then make a decision.
