"”Prepared to go Nathea to the meeting”"

"Nathea Anemyr, 15, saw the phenomenon of the ”rock your socks” – to have mismatched socks on the world day for Down synrom – broke through in Sweden."

"Nathea Anemyr, 15, from småland in Sweden, gave momentum in Sweden to ”rock the socks”movement when she 2015 started a Facebookevemenang that encouraged everyone to dress in mismatched socks. But after the Swedish Downföreningen trademarked words, so she does not call himself the founder of the movement, the association has also asked her to remove the post where she calls herself the founder. "

"”Unfortunate circumstances”"

"It was first thought that a collaboration was stopped, but now the Swedish Downföreningen prepared to think about. The chairman Veronica Hallberg Magnusson says to Aftonbladet that she thinks it is unfortunate that it has become as it has become. "

"– It is very boring to we and Natheas family have different views on how to “rock the socks” shall be used. It is unfortunate circumstances that we find ourselves where we are."

"We are absolutely prepared to walk her to the meeting and work together," says Veronica Hallberg Magnusson, who on Wednesday participated in the Swedish Downföreningens seminar in the parliament to discuss how the society can work to strengthen and develop the safety of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities. "

"so far, however, they have not made contact with Nathea and her family but plan to do so shortly."

"After she was asked to stop using the words ”rock the socks” has Nathea continued with their own pages in the social media and called to the joy and celebration of diversity."

"What are you thinking if to cooperate with the Swedish Downföreningen again?"

"I really don't know honestly, they have been quite difficult to work with," says Nathea Anemyr to Aftonbladet. "
