Question
What Are the Symptoms of Intellectual Disability in Children?
Answer
Possible symptoms of intellectual disability in children include low intelligence, delayed development, and abnormal behavior. For example, if a child at 9 months old cannot actively reach out for objects, or at 10 months old cannot babble, these could be signs of intellectual disability. Additionally, children with intellectual disability may have poor memory when learning new things, lack of logical thinking, difficulty learning numerical concepts, and challenges in emotional control and willpower.
