Born This Way

I really enjoy watching it and seeing the family dynamics, I didn't score it higher though because I would have liked to see some families who don't have as much money and how they navigate life. I think out of the 7 families they follow only one of them makes the average income or less. The rest have huge houses in L.A. so they definitely have money to get help and assistance that most middle class to lower middle class families wouldn't have access to and I wonder how much that changes their children's development.

I don't usually rate shows/movies a 10/10 unless they are both (nearly) flawless and socially important. I saw commercials for "Born This Way" on A&E before watching it and was very fearful that it would be exploitative but it is not. This show is incredibly educational, thoughtful, and well-made. There are scenes and topics that may not be for the faint of the heart but that is what makes this show, and it's cast, so special and unique. It is very real. In one episode, a viewer can almost assuredly feel an entire spectrum of feelings and emotions for the characters. The cast and their families have an unfiltered charm that is often lacking in 'reality' TV. I found myself laughing hysterically with the cast during one segment before almost being in tears during the next segment. The show is a perfect balance of genuine, heartfelt, and funny moments mixed with incredibly difficult (and sometimes sad) topics that most viewers may never think about if it weren't for this show.

"Born This Way" is an incredibly thoughtful and socially important show with a cast that is impossible not to love.

I have never before felt motivated to write a review for a television show. Well, this show inspired me! The cast is so authentic with their feelings and emotions. These people are putting themselves out there in an emotionally captivating way. They are sending the world strong and powerful messages about life, that we should all embrace. This show is about anything BUT disability and has brought "reality T.V." to a level of quality unseen in the past!In a world that places value on unimportant things, the cast in "Born this Way" brings the audience back to life's most beautiful treasures. This show has appeal for a wide range of ages. There are lessons to be learned by all!

This show truly inspired me. The adversity they endure but push through. I am so glad they found each other to relate, become friends like family and to share their life with us. This show has taught me so much about individuals with Down Syndrome and how their disability does not define them but instead made them stronger in so many ways.

what a great show!! it is so great and awesome! I love that it shines a light on the down syndrome community. All the people in it are so sweet and awesome and you really want them to accomplish their dreams and go against what the world says that they can't do. It also some very funny moments as well. I will always love this show and it will always have a special in my heart. Down syndrome people can do anything anyone else can do.
