A newborn baby can only tell their parents by crying, such as' the baby is hungry ',' the baby is urinating ', and so on. As the baby grows older, they begin to communicate with adults through language. By around 8 months, they can produce good lip sounds, such as' dad', 'mom', 'dada', etc. At around 1 year old, they will consciously call themselves' dad 'or' mom '. But what's the reason why babies can't speak?
Symptoms of babies not being able to speak
1. During infancy, babies are unable to make sounds or mutter to themselves.
2. At 12 months old, the baby is still unable to look at people who are speaking.
3. A baby around one year old cannot make movements according to instructions. For example, when you say 'point at your feet', he still doesn't react.
4. An 18 month old baby has less than 50 words mastered.
5. A 2-year-old baby cannot use two consecutive words, or a three-year-old baby cannot say sentences.
6. At the age of 4, I couldn't understand what you were saying.
What if the baby can't speak
1. Parents can communicate more with their children, find things that interest them, and guide them to speak more. This way, children will have the opportunity to exercise and gradually get better.
2. Parents should take their children out to play more often, allowing them to interact with peers of the same age and creating opportunities for them to communicate with others. Only then can their children's social skills be developed.
Finally, I would like to remind all parents that some parents believe that their children's late speech is a "late bloomer", and that the later their children speak, the smarter they become. However, this is actually a trivial matter, and this view is incorrect. However, most children's reluctance to speak is caused by their family environment. Some parents often talk about things their children don't know how to say, and over time, their children get used to listening and become unwilling to speak up; There are also a very small number of parents who force their children to speak or use their inaccurate pronunciation as a joke, inadvertently hurting their children's self-esteem and causing them to become unwilling to speak.
