Mental Retardation
Mental retardation is a term used when a person has certain limitations in mental
functioning and in skills such as communicating, taking care of him or herself, and social
skills. These limitations will cause a child to learn and develop more slowly than a typical
child. Children with mental retardation may take longer to learn to speak, walk, and take
care of their personal needs such as dressing or eating. They are likely to have trouble
learning in school. They will learn, but it will take them longer. There may be some things
they cannot learn.
