Individuals with William's syndrome typically have lower IQs and weaknesses in areas such as spatial ability, math, and writing. However, they also often have strong language and narrative abilities, which is consistent with George's strength in storytelling. Down syndrome is also associated with intellectual disability, but it typically presents with different strengths and weaknesses. Fragile X syndrome and Turner's syndrome are associated with cognitive and physical differences, but not necessarily the same strengths and weaknesses as described for George.
