Question
A 10-year-old child was hit on the head by a classmate using two ruler sticks for twenty to thirty times. Would this lead to intellectual impairment? Are there any obvious scars on the head? Is it normal to have small dents on the head?
Answer
From your age, you’ve been hit for over a decade, but there hasn’t been any impact. Everyone’s head shape is not completely flat, and there may be indented areas, but these superficial indentations do not affect your intelligence. Therefore, I suggest you don’t need to worry. Being hit may cause fractures or bleeding, but it will not lead to intellectual impairment because the brain’s development is completed before the age of 3.
