Most Common Cause of Mental Retardation Things to remember when dealing with mental retardation

• Delay in development is most often because of mental retardation. Mental retardation is not a disease,

but a condition that lasts the entire lifetime of the person.

Most Common Cause of Mental Retardation

• The majority of children with mental retardation look like other children.

• Mental retardation is not curable but may be preventable. Ensuring healthy pregnancies, childbirth and

early child care and development will help prevent the majority of cases.

• Early detection is important because parent training may help improve the final outcome for the child.

• Mental retardation may not be detected until adolescence or even adulthood; usually, the mental retardation is mild in such situations.

• The parents will likely need information on how to care for the child and how to provide special education.

• Medicines have very little role to play in mental retardation except in the control of seizures and severe mental illnesses that can occur in some individuals.
