#1) What percent of children and youth with cerebral palsy have an intellectual disability?
50%. Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological disorder that affects a child’s movement, motor skills, and muscle tone. In most cases, cerebral palsy is caused by brain damage that develops while the baby is still in utero or during or shortly after birth. There's a huge misconception that all children with cerebral palsy are intellectually impaired. Not only is this myth untrue, but many children with cerebral palsy have above average intelligence.
