	'''Neurodevelopmental disorders''' are a group of conditions that manifest early in development, typically before a child enters grade school, and are characterized by developmental deficits. These deficits primarily affect the brain's functioning and are expressed in terms of cognitive, social, and emotional development. Neurodevelopmental disorders have a neurological basis and can result in lifelong disabilities affecting an individual's daily functioning.

== Characteristics ==
Neurodevelopmental disorders are marked by:
* Developmental deficits causing impairments in personal, social, academic, or occupational functioning.
* The onset of symptoms during the developmental period, usually before the child starts school.
* The presence of a neurological basis for the disorder.

== Types of Neurodevelopmental Disorders ==
Common neurodevelopmental disorders include:
* [[Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)]]: Affects communication and behavior.
* [[Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)]]: Characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
* [[Learning Disorders]]: Affect the ability to learn specific academic skills, such as reading or math.
* [[Intellectual Disability]]: Involves impairments in intellectual and adaptive functioning.
* [[Motor Disorders]]: Include conditions such as developmental coordination disorder and tic disorders.

== Causes ==
While the exact causes of many neurodevelopmental disorders are unknown, they are believed to result from a combination of genetic, biological, and environmental factors. These may include genetics, complications during pregnancy or birth, and environmental exposures.

== Diagnosis and Assessment ==
Diagnosis typically involves a comprehensive assessment that may include medical, psychological, and educational evaluations. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving long-term outcomes.

== Treatment and Management ==
There is no cure for most neurodevelopmental disorders, but treatments can help manage symptoms and improve functioning. These might include:
* Behavioral therapies
* Educational and school-based therapies
* Medications
* Family support and education

== Impact on Families and Society ==
Neurodevelopmental disorders can have a significant impact on families and society. They may require long-term care and support, affecting family dynamics, education systems, and healthcare resources.
