Children with deformities suffred with lots mental , social and emotional problem which significantly and negetivly impact of his behavior. Besides if children by nature nervous system is not properly controlled and it's affect in development cognitive process .

Intelligence is the ability to learn , adjust and take right decision at right time. Has significant role to improve behaviour .

If children doesn't get Quality of physical environment , medical care , the Quality of facilities and environment , accidents in life , all nurture or environment factor positively and negetively impact huaman behaviour.
