  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

A significant number of these children may have problems in developing a secure attachment because they express less emotion than other children.

Answer to Question 2

This learned helplessness may be unwittingly condoned by adults. When they are told a child is retarded, adults are less likely to urge that child to persist after failure than they are to urge a normal child at the same level of cognitive development.
