Patient's question:
What should be done about mentally retarded children? Can mentally retarded children still read books? How to handle the procedures? They cannot be self-sufficient in lifeDoctor's answer:
There are many causes of intellectual disability. Children with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities can only surpass the intellectual level of an average eight-year-old, meaning your brother does not have sexual awareness. It is purely a physical instinct, but it is also necessary to teach him gender awareness so that he understands the differences between himself and girls. Women in the household should not treat him like a child by hugging and kissing him, as this will confuse his gender identity. When he uses the toilet, he should close the door, and he should not make casual physical contact with women. With persistent effort over the long term, he will develop conditioned reflex habits. Keep up the encouragement! Children threatened by intellectual disability should be taken to a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of blind medication to alleviate their symptoms.
