[quote=Anonymous]My child was not talking or making any approximations at 18 months. We started speech therapy shortly thereafter. The first year, progress was pretty slow, but he started preschool at 3 and just exploded — nonstop chatterbox with an enormous vocabulary. We are pretty sure he could read long before he could speak. We stuck with ST until 5 to fine-tune and back again at 7 to work on Rs and Ls. He’s now 9 and has a few minor speech quirks, but no major issues. You cannot shut him up and he’s an oddly good presenter (like class projects/reading aloud to others). [/quote]
