  •  Does the behavior interfere with development and learning?
  • Are the behaviors disruptive to the family, school or workplace?
  • Is the behavior harmful to the child or adult with Down syndrome or to others?
  • Is the behavior different from what might be typically displayed by someone of comparable developmental age?
