Intellectual development disorder (IDD) is a neuro-developmental disorder that causes problems with intellectual tasks. Children with intellectual development disorder have trouble with things like learning, communicating, thinking rationally, making judgments, and planning. They often struggle in school and may also have problems with friends and day-to-day tasks like bathing or getting dressed. They might seem to be acting out, but really the problem is that they don’t understand what behavior is appropriate.
Child Mind Institute has an English and Spanish quick guide to IDD here.
