How to deal with intellectual disability and early intervention?

In modern life, people spend a lot of time and money on raising babies, hoping that their babies will become smarter and healthier. The improvement of intelligence is the issue that parents are most concerned about. Many children are prone to symptoms of intellectual decline due to various factors. At this time, human intervention is needed. Let’s take a look at how to deal with intellectual retardation and early intervention. I hope everyone can understand.

Children with intellectual disabilities mainly have lower brain function than normal people, or it is called mental retardation. It is usually divided into several types, such as congenital such as Down syndrome, deafness or blindness; acquired cerebral palsy, cerebral hypoxia, acquired deafness or blindness. Once intellectual disability is detected, early intervention, treatment and rehabilitation training are more effective than late treatment.

The education or training of intellectually retarded children mainly focuses on sports, followed by hands-on activities and language. The purpose of training is to learn and master survival skills, social adaptability, that is, the ability to take care of oneself, etc.

The first is the training of large bones and large muscles movement ability, such as crawling, walking (balance ability), running, jumping, etc.

Secondly, the ability of the hands. The hand is known as the second brain because it occupies a large position in the brain, and fine motor training will affect the brain. The ability to grasp, hold, pinch and clasp can improve manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination. Even massaging and kneading your fingers can stimulate the brain.

Language is a tool for human communication and the most basic ability for survival. Learning a language starts with the most basic daily expressions. For example, they can call dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, older brother and sister, and younger brother and sister, and can express basic life expressions such as hunger, cold, need or refusal.

Educating intellectually retarded children requires sufficient patience and perseverance because they belong to a vulnerable group and are very unfortunate people. Many facts have proved that children who are discovered early, trained early, and receive rehabilitation training early can not only take care of themselves but also have the potential to reach or exceed the average level.
