Thread: Language delay
We also, have had a lady from infant and toddler come to our house when jesse was younger to help us with mouth exercises as well. My oldest daughter speaks Chinese (she has taken lessons for several years) so she has Chinese friends. Several of them have told me that Chinese (boys) particularly often speak late. Her son began using words at 3. Jennifer's old Chinese teacher said her 2 sons spoke very late. She says they are very clever now because they have learned things in a different way. Also, I had a friend recommend Thomas Sowell's book, Einstein Theory which addresses children speaking late.
Since we don't ever know for sure, we are trying to read to our son and keep him well stimulated and he just finished a month of one morning a week speech for 2 year olds. Your son sounds like he is coming along slowly but surely.
