emotional/behavioral disorders (EBD) refers to a condition in which behavioral or
emotional responses of an individual in school are so different from his/her generally
accepted, age-appropriate, ethnic, or cultural norms that they adversely affect educational performance in such areas as self-care, social relationships, personal adjustment, academic progress, classroom behavior, or work adjustment. EBD is more than a transient, expected response to stressors in the child's or youth's environment and would persist even with individualized interventions, such as feedback to the individual, consultation with parents or families, and/or modification of the educational environment. The eligibility decision must be based on multiple sources of data about the individual's behavioral or emotional functioning. EBD must be exhibited in at least two different settings, at least one of which must be school related.

Down's syndrome
- is a genetic disorder characterized by blunt facial features, short stature, and learning difficulties. It is caused by the presence of an extra copy of a particular chromosome. It may not be necessary to discuss about its DNA, medical, or scientific findings here, because after all, scholars explained its probable cause from A to Z. But no right answers can be found. According to doctors, no one knows why Down syndrome occurs and there's no way to prevent the chromosomal error that causes it. Scientists do know that women at age 30 and older have a significantly higher risk of having a child with this condition.
