Symptoms of Intellectual Disability:1. Ignoring sights and sounds. At 6 months, the child still does not notice when adults talk to them. They show poor attention to people and objects around them, with a vacant stare. In addition to feeding difficulties, children with intellectual disabilities often experience nausea and vomiting when being fed solid foods like rice or steamed buns at 6-8 months. They have poor chewing ability and frequently choke.
2. Never smiling. Normal children start smiling at 2 months and can laugh loudly by 4 months. However, children with intellectual disabilities rarely smile or only engage in aimless, foolish laughter.
3. Delayed language development. After 1 year, the child still cannot make purposeful sounds and may sometimes shout aimlessly.
