[quote=Anonymous]OP, virtually all delays at this age are unexplained. If someone tried to give you a diagnosis at this age, it would be suspect unless it was based on a genetic disorder or actual physical abnormality. It's virtually impossible at 22 months to say whether this is just a "behind the curve" kid or this is true developmental delay or this is MERLD or this is aphasia. You can't predict which kid will be talking perfectly at age three and which kid will go on to need years of speech therapy. It just is an unexplained delay. It's strange that EI can't give you any exercises to do with your child. I would seek private speech therapy.[/quote]
