Usually, males are more severely affected by this disorder than females.]]> 2018-03-28 14:11:03 UTC https://padlet.com/astrom19/prn5qodxl60i/wish/246909201 symptoms astrom19 https://padlet.com/astrom19/prn5qodxl60i/wish/246911642 These problems can range from the mild, such as learning disorders or problems with mathematics, to the severe, such as an intellectual or developmental disability.

The syndrome may affect the ability to think, reason, and learn.

Because many people with Fragile X also have attention disorders, hyperactivity, anxiety, and language-processing problems, a person with Fragile X may have more capabilities than his 

 

·         Most infants and younger children with Fragile X don’t have any specific physical features of this syndrome. When these children start to go through puberty, however, many will begin to develop certain features that are typical of those with Fragile X.
·         These features include a narrow face, large head, large ears, flexible joints, flat feet, and a prominent forehead.

Given the proper education, therapy, and support, all persons with FXS can make progress.Most children with FXS qualify for special education services. Education can be complemented by a variety of therapies that will help your child become more independent in the transitions from childhood through adolescence and into adulthood."]]> 2018-03-28 14:18:23 UTC https://padlet.com/astrom19/prn5qodxl60i/wish/246913274 work cited astrom19 https://padlet.com/astrom19/prn5qodxl60i/wish/246914040 https://fragilex.org/learn/treatment-and-intervention/
