[quote=Anonymous]Happened at 17 months for us, but my daughter's dad and I are both extremely verbal people who talk to her all the time. She also has no older siblings to talk for her. (or any siblings.) She was the first in her preschool class, and the boys and younger siblings definitely talked later. When your kids do start talking at all, make them try to use their words for everything. Finishing their thoughts for them or letting them gesture when you know they know the word lets them be lazy. (this comes from a speech therapist friend of mine.)[/quote]
