Thank you for this factoid. I am a 53 yr old who was born with CP. A stereotype that persist is that all babies born with CP will be intellectually challenged but in my case that was not true. Also CP is a birth defect and cannot be considered CP if it occurs after a baby is born. PT, Speech and other early interventions can help children live fulfilling lives. We are educated, successful members of society with families of our own.

My dad was born with CP. His limitations were fairly mild compared to many others who suffer with this condition. But, my dad was highly intelligent- near genius level, so having CP absolutely does not mean the affected person will have limited intellect.
