Question
How should children with intellectual disability typically be treated?
Answer
Children with intellectual disability should begin active special education and training as early as possible. Based on the extent of the child’s delay and specific deficiencies, tailor-made educational and training goals and plans should be developed. For children with mild developmental delays, education should be the main focus, fostering good life habits, learning some labor skills to achieve the ability to live independently. For children with severe developmental delays, care should be the primary focus, preventing accidents, preventing injuries, and preventing infections.
