  • It was love at first sight for Nick and Gabi when they met at a conference for people with Down Syndrome. Unfortunately, they didn't swap contact information, so when the conference was over, it was up to their mothers to bring them back together. The two had an emotional reunion in a video that went viral, and Kelly Clarkson recreates that magical moment with another surprise reunion for the couple.

      Having a Down syndrome sibling I can shed some light. It’s not really that pure but it is innocent. Don’t get me wrong they’re are very capable of love and feelings but all the romanticism is performative. Purely imitating what they see elsewhere - especially from media depictions of romance and ‘love’. Members of my own family encourage my sibling to behave in ways that is seen as cute but in reality it’s manipulative entertainment - which is all this is.

I totally agree with Mom’s statement about there not being any walls. Through my experiences coaching at a Provincial (I am in Canada), National and World Games levels I have seen and felt the laughter, sadness, anger and love that these Mom’s share of their children. I have never danced so much at events! I have seldom recieved such heart felt hugs. I have seldom experienced such joy.

      Pretty sure people disliked this because it feels low key exploitive, not because they dislike the people.

      I’m hoping those people hit the dislike button accidentally because they were crying so hard they couldn’t see properly...

    Down Syndrome people are the best. Their is no middle ground with them. It's either they love you or they don't. Their love is always so pure. That's the kind of love regular people have forgotten how to give. Pure and undiluted.

    You not only need to supply tissues for your on stage guests but your whole audience. This story is so beautiful. These young people show the rest of the world what love should be.
