I have a mild intellectual disability. As an adult it's not as bad I might have hard times sometimes but I'm not stupid.
You are definitely not stupid. I really hate when others call those with ID stupid or retarded. Breaks my heart. Thanks for your comment!
Thank you for this. I never knew why my daughter was diagnosed with ID. She was diagnosed with microcephaly as a baby. She had Early intervention and early childhood. The early childhood teacher told me that microcephaly was brought on by drinking while pregnant, which I did not do, and that she would need a different diagnosis to get help. We chose to homeschool which brought her a long way until there was a huge regression. At that time we got her tested and we got a diagnosis of MODID. We work on life skills now and have a great time together.
Hi Jackie. You are very welcome. I'm saddened to hear you were told microcephaly was brought on by drinking. As I'm sure you already know, there are other causes, such as chromosomes, perhaps you had an infection during pregnancy, lack of oxygen to the baby's brain, etc. True, alcohol and drugs have also been found to be a cause, but they certainly are not the only cause. You did an excellent job implementing early intervention! I am now curious to know if the diagnosis of MODID is an additional diagnosis with IDDD?
What does Modid mean?
