People with intellectual disabilities can and do learn new skills, but they learn them more slowly. There are varying degrees of intellectual disability, from mild to profound. Mental retardation is a condition diagnosed before age 18, usually in infancy. When onset occurs at age 18 or after, it is called dementia, which can coexist with a MR diagnosis. Intelligence level as determined by individual standard assessment is below 70, and the ability to adapt to the demands of normal life is impaired. This is important because it distinguishes a diagnosis of MR from individuals with low IQ scores who are able to adapt to the demands of everyday life.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_div][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”13″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”14″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”15″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”16″ ][cs_content_seo]Symptoms of Mental Retardation\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][cs_element_layout_row _id=”17″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”18″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”19″ ][cs_content_seo]Rolling over, sitting up, crawling, or walking late
