Question

Will having epilepsy affect a child’s future education?

Answer

The vast majority of pediatric epilepsy patients can attend school normally, and with special care, they can also consider going to school. School life not only provides them with opportunities to learn various skills but also importantly allows them to participate in activities with other children, build friendships, and feel like they are the same as other children. These aspects are crucial for a child’s overall development. This approach is not about neglecting epilepsy but rather recognizing that the majority of epilepsy patients can learn and grow just like other normal children.
