Doctor's answer:

Teaching and special training for children with developmental delays should be actively initiated as early as possible, specifically formulating specific goals and plans for special education and training based on the degree of delay and the aspects of their shortcomings. Parents should be patient with their children. For children with mild mental retardation, the focus should be on education, fostering good living habits, learning various work skills, and achieving self-sufficiency in daily life. For children with severe mental retardation, the focus should be on care to prevent accidents, disabilities, and the spread of infectious diseases.
