I just love what you said something about them as "resourceful and intelligent". You know what, I'm so hurt because my family on my husband side don't understand and even judge my son for not being able to talk and I don't want to go to their place anymore because of this issue I always control myself not to cry if ever they said something about my son, its really hard to explain sometimes because they know nothing about it. I'm so thankful that I saw your video it really helps me, it gives me hope. I will keep your videos with me all the time if I am down and heard some hurtful things from them so I will be reminded everytime about you just said. My Son is turning 4 this Sunday. He is really active, very sweet child he loves to play on his own and even grabs anything he likes without supervision. He can even sings all the baby songs, can count, knows the shapes, colors except conversation. He doesn't talk unless in desperate time like he really wants to go bathroom he'll say "I'm pooping" and "milk, okay". But I observed that when he can do something by his own he will do it by himself without my assistance.
Oh my gosh I'm so happy you found me and I can give you some peace of mind. Your baby is beautiful and he is so lucky to have a loving mama like you! Keep working with him, play with him, model the language he needs, and keep everything fun! No matter what, you are doing an amazing job providing for your son, you never have to feel shame or guilt. I support you!
My son is 3 and he isn't talking, I'm so worried. I noticed your comment was left 3 years ago, did your child talk soon after 3 years old? Any advice, I would appreciate it, thank you!
My 4yr old boy, will get upset when you withhold that for so long and start showing tantrum. Sometimes he will just walk away, and don't want that stuff any longer. He feels so sad when he s trying to communicate and I can't get/understand what he's saying. It just shows on his face . And when i repeat what he doesn't mean, he says no or shakes his head, if I say another, he says no, by the time I try about 5 times, he gets sad or walk away, or drags my hand to show me what he meant, I feel so hurt, he still blabs at this age & understanding him is so hard.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge,I've just come across your channel. I love that's it's so current. Im willing to try everything to help my son and I'm sure to use your tips
My son Breeze is almost 3 years old. Still not speaking in sentences or really saying many words. He babbles and makes sounds, says “go” and “wow” I’m feeling like I’ve failed as a mom. He has been in speech since 17 months and just got occupational a few months ago. He is aging out of the program in 4 months once he turns 3. I work at a daycare he goes 2 days per week. Will be going 3 soon. I just feel sad. Like I’m failing him. I see the other kids speaking in fluent sentences and my son just isn’t there yet and I feel sad for him. Is it me? I must be doing something wrong. That’s how I feel. Im crying as I write this. I just feel so alone sometimes like no one understands how it feels to see their child struggle in this way but I’m sure others understand. There are children much much younger than him who are speaking with words and not babbling. I just want to give up to be honest. Like it makes me so depressed because I’m scared he’s gonna struggle forever. What if he never talks? It’s so hard to keep good positive energy when you’re worried about your child’s future
Thanks.its really helpful video.appreciate u for ur efforts.My daughter is 2.5yrs old .she tells rhymes,numbers ,colours but she is not able to communicate and mingle with others .what should I do to develop her communication skills so that she can tell the things what she wants.she asks thru gestures.
My son at 3 years doesnt have any words. He is in speech therapy and is smart by their standards but is 'lazy'. Will teaching him sign language for these words set back his actual speaking? I cant seem to get a straight answer from his therapist.
My son is not paying attention when start to do talking therapy at home. with me. He just look the photos I show and he dont follow what I said. He grab my hand if he likes or wanted to get something for him.
Up to now, he dont call us Mama and Papa, he is turning 3 on January 2021. He have only 3 so far words that he know. When he see apple, strawberry, he knows them. Now the monkey, since i read everyday monkey story.
That is so frustrating! Keep reading, singing, and using the tips I described in these videos. I would recommend that you seek a licensed Speech Language Pathologist in your area to get some individualized recommendations
my son is 5yrs old.. he got autism.. cant talk.. the hard part is .. its so hard to communicate if he feels pain or something.. everyday i talk and play with him.. i just hope i can help him train to talk..
I’m trying to get my 2 year old to talk more. He can say a few words but babbles most of the time. I’ve talked to his pediatrician but his pediatrician said he’s not worried because my son is growing up in a bilingual home. What can I do to help him? Should I just teach him one language up until he’s a certain age to learn the other language?
My oldest is 3&1/2 he has the worst attention span and he’s so go go go I’m having a hard time with getting him to slow down. He cannot pronounce a lot of letter sounds . He knows what they are and what they “say” but he cannot get it out the way it is intended to sound . Heeeelllppp K , G and C sounds are his biggest struggle . S sounds are slurred often
This can be tough since his attention is poor. Are you working with a licensed SLP? For articulation sounds, songs and books that have those sounds in it like "Go Dog Go" or "5 little Ducks" song are great to keep children motivated while practicing sounds. Model and exaggerate the sounds he has trouble with. Also, say it wrong and have HIM correct YOU! My kiddos love this because they have the POWER haha
Hi my son is 3 yrs and he seems to not be interested in learning anything I’ve watched a lot your videos and tried everything he doesn’t look at me or try to repeat what is said to him he has a lot of tantrums with screaming and yelling I tried to read he doesn’t listen and get mad while I’m reading can I get some tips on how to get him to want to learn
My son is he is gonna be 4yr old he counts 1-100 and some words but he is not talking he like numbers but he don't want to words, please help me i am confused
Thank you very much for the inputs. My son just turned 4. But he is not very vocal. Only uses when he has the only way. How to make him answer the questions or communicate more
Hi Kaby, make it a fun game to encourage him to use his words and show him what words to use. So you might have to model the word or phrase for him at first. Then, follow through! Be gentle, patient, and loving, but make sure you follow through with your expectations!
Hello! My daughter is 3yrs 7 months, she speaks a lot but other persons are having problems understanding her. I also notice that her tongue doesn’t move freely when speaking. Is there something I can do at home with her? Thank you in advance!
You should definitely call your pediatrician for an appointment just to make sure everything’s ok. If it’s a motor issue of the tongue, you’ll need to see a licensed Speech Language Pathologist. I’m sorry there’s no easy answer, but I strongly believe she would benefit best from individual, specialized treatment. Start with your Pediatrician, and any regional center organizations in your area that has licensed Speech Language Pathologists on staff
Thank you for posting very impressive and useful videos.my child turning 4y this week, sings and learns lengthy rhymes also but won't ask any questions on his own.if I tell him to ask a question to his mom, just asks as it is but don't understands.is there any procedure to improve speaking skills at home . Thank you for your videos once again.
Great question. I definitely target asking questions, with young children. There’s books and activities I use, I’ll try to create a video on it. But I would recommend reading books and withholding items. Also, be sure to model and exaggerate when you ask questions
hi! my daughter is 3 years old, and she can speak english and swedish, and understands kurdish and often imitates what we say in swedish but she only speaks when she wants to not when we ask here things. now she has begun with 2 sentences, but she doesn't say them all the time, only once or two, so we know she has a big vocabulary. and The talking is starting. but how can we encourage her to speak all The time? Every time when i ask her to say something she laughs, i know she understands everything we say but she is very stubborn🤷♀️😁
Hi there I was wondering if you could give some tips on getting eye contact from a 2.5 year old boy My son is delayed and I'm really trying with step one of the pyramid but I can't even get him to look at me when I speak to him I've watched all of your videos and I'm trying to implement without over loading him so getting his attention is a good first step I feel (..?) Also thank you so much in general and any advice you could give would be so amazing
PM Hair Design great question! Any toy that he likes, hold it by your face. When he looks, say “good looking!” And give it to him. Gradually, lengthen the time you hold it to your face before giving it to him. Also, playing social games like peek-a-boo, hide and seek.. etc are great for attention
@@HelpMeGrowSpeech Ok Thank you so much Fingers crossed Its so hard to no get frustrated Your videos and advice have been so helpful. 🥰💕 Have a good day
Hi. Your videos are really helpful. I have a question. My son is 3 yrs 4 months and he has the expression of needs. For eg. He will ask for whatever he wants in 4 to 5 words sentence. However, he does not have expression of thoughts and he does not ask question like what is this , where are we going etc. Please suggest how to work on this.
Great question, I would recommend that you model questions ALL the time during daily routines. So when it's time to get dressed, you can say "Let's get your shirt!" and then ask "What's this?" and hold up his shirt. You can also teach asking questions through songs that have "who" "what" and "where" questions in them. Maybe I can make a video on this topic!
@@HelpMeGrowSpeech thanks a lot for a detailed reply. I will be really greatful if you make a video on this topic. Will help me understand the concept better.
Hi Lindsey . My son is 3y4m and has a very similar issue . He can ask for everything he wants in sentences 3-4 , sometimes 5 words sentences . He can answer most of “what’s this “ kind of questions for all things he knows , but he doesn’t answer questions like - what did you do at school today? Or if he had a play date at someone’s home and I’ll ask him do you want to go to ABC home to play - he won’t have an answer. Also if I ask him - what did you play / do at ABC home during your play date ? No answer again. Are my questions appropriate for his age ? If yes - how do I get him to answer? Richa - could I ask how was is your journey and what has helped you so far ? I am stuck in a very similar situation and not sure how can I help my child here ! Would appreciate all suggestions/ inputs . Thanks !!
My son does this totally...grabs my hand to take me where he wants
It’s so much easier for our littles when they can just get us to get things for them! I don’t blame him at all!
My son does the same he is 2 years n 3 months old

I was told by my therapist too always still say the word while signing..
Thanks for your good video. It is very helpful.
Thank you so much!
How about making a home speech therapy that would lessen his echolalia? 🥺
My son is not paying attention when start to do talking therapy at home.
with me. He just look the photos I show and he dont follow what I said. He grab my hand if he likes or wanted to get something for him.

my son is 5yrs old.. he got autism.. cant talk.. the hard part is .. its so hard to communicate if he feels pain or something.. everyday i talk and play with him.. i just hope i can help him train to talk..
Me too, almost 5😓
My daughter is so stubborn that she will go with out rather than say the word.
It can be so tough, keep working at it, consistency is key!
best video but the background music is distracting
I will make the music quieter next time!
