Everyone doesn't know whether epilepsy is mental illness or stupid. Over the years, there have been many misunderstandings in the education of children with epilepsy. They think that children with epilepsy have low intelligence and poor working ability, so there are many written or unwritten regulations that restrict their study and work, and even stipulate that children with epilepsy cannot go to school. This is unreasonable and discriminates against children with epilepsy. It is true that epilepsy, like other brain diseases, has a small proportion of children with mental retardation or eccentric personality, and most of them are secondary. Epilepsy is not necessarily related to mental retardation. There are not a few teachers who mistakenly believe that children with epilepsy must have poor academic performance, and some parents worry that children's "thinking" at school will aggravate seizures, so they let themselves go and let children with epilepsy lose the opportunity to receive education. This is very wrong. Ill children should be taught as appropriate even if they are mentally deficient. Through education, children can learn and master the necessary skills so that they can live independently when they grow up. An epidemiological survey abroad shows that 95% of epileptic children can study in ordinary schools, and there is no difference in intelligence and learning, but the proportion of children's progress after learning is higher than that of normal children, reaching 52%. Children with frequent attacks have particularly prominent learning disabilities, mainly manifested in poor reading ability, which is at least 1~2 years later than normal children. It is difficult for them to learn those courses that require high brain flexibility, such as mathematics and physics, but they can do well in some courses that require memory, such as Chinese and foreign languages. Children with epilepsy often have many behavioral problems when studying at school, such as apathy, withdrawal, distraction, aggressive behavior, inattention, anxiety, irritability, inferiority and so on. However, proper education for children with epilepsy can properly avoid the formation of the above personality and reduce the occurrence of such behaviors.
