Question

During the day, I experience this situation several times, but it doesn’t affect my work. What are some better places for intellectual disability?

Answer

  1. The symptoms of intellectual disability in children include clumsy movements, inattention, and lower abilities. For example, a child might dislike playing with their hands, which is normal for a child to do at 3 to 5 months of age, but it’s abnormal if they still don’t play with their hands or if they still dislike putting toys in their mouth at 2 to 3 years old. A child’s movements may be immature, and even after learning to walk, they may still kick their legs around aimlessly. Children may engage in more purposeless movements, and adults may not be clear about the child’s intentions.
  2. Children may have inattentive attention, showing indifference to external things, or having brief interest even when they are interested.
  3. Children’s language ability, thinking ability, memory ability, calculation ability, and inferential comparison ability are all lower than those of same age children. To improve intellectual disability, some recovery methods can be adopted, such as:
  • Seeking guidance and treatment plans from professional neurologists or rehabilitation specialists;
  • Engaging in physical exercises and sports to promote the child’s neural development and cognitive abilities;
  • Providing appropriate educational and learning resources for the child’s age and abilities to stimulate brain development;
  • Cultivating the child’s interests and hobbies, encouraging them to participate in various activities to develop comprehensive abilities;
  • Giving children enough love and support to build a positive family environment. Please note that the choice of recovery methods should be based on the child’s specific situation and the advice of a professional doctor, and it requires long-term persistence and patience. May your child grow up healthily!
