Well written article. Just like your paper stated,unfortunately it is true that negative images of PWS in the popular media (including movies) really do affect people in the general population, giving them false and ridiculous ideas about what a PWS may be like. DO you have any suggestions for a way to let people know that these are ridiculous, insulting portrayals that are made in the media re. the PWS- and how would you steer a person who has these negatively biased ideas in the right direction (i.e. how do you help people who are ignorant re. PWS to learn and understand correct information?)
