[quote=Anonymous]A screening won’t hurt. My oldest was a bit like this though he still wasn’t talking until he was older and when he did, he was speaking in simple sentences. I got him screened twice. He just didn’t feel the need to talk. He got his points across to people though. He’s a big introvert and doesn’t like to talk much — though he talks plenty around friends. That’s just to say, it might not be an issue though getting input from an SLP and others would help rule out any issues. I had friends whose children had issues — in one case autism (though there were other signs) and one case where it was a muscular issue. It is a bit unsettling when kids are on the late end of the normal range for milestones. That’s another thing to remember. The milestones have a range of normal. My second kid was an early talker, so that he and his brother started talking basically at the same time. [/quote]
