Question
How should intellectual disability be treated effectively?
Answer
Intellectual developmental delay refers to children aged 0-7 who are significantly behind in growth and development compared to their peers. They may have fundamental weaknesses in areas such as motor skills, language, cognition, and social abilities. For the diagnosis of intellectual developmental delay, it usually requires observation and some simple tests to determine. Treatment-wise, it is recommended to combine medical, social, educational, and vocational training measures, providing appropriate training for children based on their age and severity to help them reach the highest possible intellectual level.
