The Teachings of Jon
Jon is 40 years old and profoundly affected by Down Syndrome. He can’t talk, has an IQ of 20 and earns less than thirteen dollars a year. Although it may appear that he will not accomplish much by conventional standards of measure, his greater purpose is to teach others how to love. This documentary, The Teachings of Jon, was created by his sister and celebrates Jon as he IS rather than focusing on changing Jon to fit into the world around him.
