Answer
The diagnosis of intellectual disability primarily relies on symptoms such as low intelligence, distinctive facial features, webbed fingers, and confirmation through chromosome testing. This condition is genetic and currently there is no scientific way to calculate the likelihood of being affected. The details of your child’s life you described are not sufficient to rule out this disease, as some cases may develop gradually with a decline in intelligence over time. Some children may not show significant differences from normal children in the early stages.
