Chance is an 11-year-old Asian boy who lives in a small group home for children with mild mental disabilities. At the age of 5, an intelligence test resulted in extremely low range leading to an ICD-10 diagnosis of Mild Intellectual Disability. He has also been diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Through therapy, Chance has become more tolerate to changes in his environment over time.
Taking his special needs into account, Chance is viewed as a smart boy with strong learning abilities. While it is believed that Chance will reach some level of independence, it is not known if he can reach full independence given his impulse control issues. Chance earned an A in “kindness” at his special needs school, showing he has an overall good temperament, but he lacks the ability to control his impulses which sometimes lead him to shove, hit or throw tantrums though it is not believed he intending to hurt others. It is noted that Chance longs for the one-on-one attention that is needed for him to continue to develop, but his current caregivers cannot give it to him. Due to his impulse control issues and his need for one-on-one attention, CHI recommends Chance be the only child or the youngest child by at least two years.
