Severe intellectual disabilities are characterized by significant limitations in intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior. People with severe intellectual disabilities have an IQ score below 40 and require significant support to carry out daily activities.
These disabilities can be caused by genetic factors, prenatal exposure to toxins or infections, or brain damage. They may also occur as a result of complications during birth or early childhood illnesses.
It is important to understand that people with severe intellectual disabilities are still valuable members of society, and they deserve respect and support. With the right support and care, they can lead fulfilling lives and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
