Social Relationships and Friendships among Young People with Down's Syndrome in Secondary Schools.
Cuckle, Pat; Wilson, June
British Journal of Special Education, v29 n2 p66-71 Jun 2002

Students had very firm notions about the nature of friendship; however the friendship they envisaged did not always materialize due in part to geographical, practical, and safety concerns.
