Debarati Anek bacchader thik moton 'Mental Retardation' diagnosis kora hoy na. Topic ta birat o anek different facets e dekhte hoy. Ami just teente aspect bolte chai. ekhane ei dutu aspecter bishoy aneke BB te technical gyan ditey parben. 1. Proper diagnosis. Eta bhalo, well qualified professional der hatey kora uchit. This is expensive karon kichhu test korano dorkar. Blood test (Thyroid , Aminoacid, Phenylketonuria, Chromosome analysis ityadi), EEG (Brain wave tracings- jate epilepsy-ba mirgi rog dhora porey) aar ta chhara bhalo Physical Examination ebong Psychometric testing kora dorka. Bhalo diagnosis na holey shathik treatment o teacher der kaaj korano ta 'ek pa egono aar du pa pechhano'. Taka'r shomoshya ta i shob cheye beshi problem. Kintu e ta jana uchit, je anek teaching hospitals e nominal charge e testing korano jaay. Ta chhara anek NGO ra e kaaj cheshta korchhe.

2.Debarati, je likhechho, compound e aar ekta school er katha (thik bujhlam ki?) sheta'r bishoy ekta comment. Mentally retarded baccha der o anek degrees of retardation thake. Khub beshi severe na holey, oder 'main stream' class e boshiye porano ta best. Ora 'normal' chhele meyeder kachh theke best shekhe. Aar jara 'normal' tara o shekhe how to adjust and live with the less fortunate.

3. Ma, Baba, family ebong society puro support dorkar. Taka poysha ta kintu boro byapar na. Ami nije dekhechhi anek dhoni manush tader mentally challenged chhele meyeder tyag kore dey. Abar anek gorib poribar tader nijer santan bole ja parey, tai bhaga bhagi korey tader nijeder mentally challenged santan ke jotno korey.

BB'r member der kachh theke comment dekhte chaichhi. Debarati, tumi emon shomoy e important topic ta launch korle, jokhon shobai onno dikey byasto. Sheta ashwabhabik na, je anek er chokhe porey ni (ami o aaj obdi dekhi ni). Asha korchhi, e topic er discussion ta khub bhalo rokom hobe, ebong aneke nijeder experience, NGO'r porichoy etc ditey egiye aashbe.
