Abstract

Intellectual disability, also referred to as mental retardation, is frequently the result of genetic mutation. Where intellectual disability is present together with additional clinical symptoms or physical anomalies, there is often sufficient information available for the diagnosing physician to identify a known syndrome, which may then educe the identification of the causative defect.Counselling is guidance especially as solicited by the client from a knowledgeable professional who can help him to help himself to overcome the problem. Here we attempt to provide a study of intellectual disability (mental disability) of children and teenagers and the role of counseling in healing the cases.
