Abstract
Males with fragile X syndrome (fig 1) need extra help at school, protected employment later, and are not usually able to live independently. Affected females have much milder learning difficulties and fewer obvious clinical features; half of those with the full mutation are not recognised as disabled but most have some learning difficulties.Keywords
