Symptoms of cerebral palsy in children include unclear speech, motor impairments, epilepsy, and postural disorders. Cerebral palsy in children is associated with congenital factors, such as oxygen deprivation in the womb that causes damage to the central nervous system, leading to cerebral palsy. It may also result from acquired factors, such as encephalitis or Japanese B encephalitis.
