Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 7 year old foster to adopt daughter has an IQ of 77. She has an IEP and is receiving physical therapy and occupational therapy, will she be able to succeed in life when she gets older? Will she be able to live on her own when she gets older? What is the limitation on a person with a 77 IQ regarding jobs?
I appreciate your concern and query on HCM. Based on the history I would say that: 1. IQ from 50-70 is considered Mild disability and such individual can achieve near normal language and social skills. However they need assistance with the home and job and can worsen under stress. 2. Under stressful situations they need more social support and customized help to face the challenges. I hope you find this helpful.
