Which area is majorly impacted by Intellectual Disabilities?

Career development
Social development
Financial literacy
Creative expression

The correct answer is: Social development

Intellectual disabilities significantly affect social development due to the challenges individuals face in understanding social cues, forming relationships, and communicating effectively. These individuals may struggle with interpreting body language, tone of voice, and other non-verbal signals that are crucial for social interactions. As a result, they may find it difficult to engage in typical social activities, build friendships, and participate in community events. While other areas, such as career development and financial literacy, are also influenced by intellectual disabilities, the core impact tends to be more pronounced in social development, as it directly pertains to interpersonal relationships and social skills that are essential for navigating everyday life.
