13-Year-Old Actor And Author With Down Syndrome Captivates And Inspires

A young woman, a 13-year-old actor and author with Down syndrome captivates and inspires.

Life is often not a fair experience. No one will get through this life without knowing the feeling of pain and hurt. There will be instances that leave their mark, leaving us battered and bruised. However, some people seem to encounter and confront more than their fair share of hardships and trials. 

But, despite those trying situations and circumstances, quitting is not an option. In fact, those difficulties can be used for good, making us stronger and propelling us on to bigger and better things. 

Mia Armstrong is an excellent example of this idea. The teenage actor, author and activist with Down syndrome has not let anything hold her back. 

With humor and grace, Mia explains in an interview on CBS Mornings that she believes Down syndrome is her superpower. She also talked about her book, “I am a Masterpiece.”

Mia adds that she wants people to be kind to one another, whether they have a disability or not. 

However, Mia understands that even when people say mean or hurtful things to her, she tries to give them grace and be patient with them because people will sometimes “forget their manners.”

Mia is a lovely, inspiring young woman with a beautiful heart and outlook. It’s clear that Mia also has a wonderful, loving mother. Mia’s mom joined her daughter during the interview segment and called the opportunity to raise a child with Down syndrome a “privilege.”

“It is a privilege to raise a child with Down syndrome,” she said. “Mia has taught our family so much about patience and persistence.”

She also told Mia that she is inspired every day by her because she never gives up, no matter the situation or circumstance. 

Mia is an inspiring young woman who has accomplished so much in her young life. Who knows what she will do next? 

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, said the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
