Question
What are the symptoms of intellectual disability in children? Children are the hope of the family, and their intellectual level directly affects their future development. What symptoms may a child with intellectual disability exhibit?
Answer
Symptoms of intellectual disability include: One, unable to see or hear. By six months old, they are unable to notice when adults are speaking to them. They show poor attention to people and objects around them, with a dull gaze. Symptoms of intellectual disability in children, in addition to feeding difficulties, include: When feeding 6-8 month-old infants solid foods such as rice and bread, they often experience nausea and vomiting, have poor chewing ability, and frequently cough. Two, not able to smile. Normal children can smile at two months old and can laugh loudly at four months, but intellectually disabled children generally do not smile or only laugh aimlessly. Three, delayed language development. By one year old, they are still unable to make purposeful sounds, sometimes crying aimlessly.
