When Should You Be Concerned About Language Delays?
While children develop at their own pace, certain signs might indicate a language delay. If your child is not meeting typical milestones, it may be worth consulting a pediatrician or a speech-language pathologist. Some red flags include:
No babbling by 12 months No first words by 18 months Limited vocabulary by 2 years Difficulty following simple instructions Unclear speech by 3 years
Early intervention can be crucial for addressing language delays, so don't hesitate to seek professional advice if you have concerns.
