Hello my name is Taylor. I have a 15 month old son, that I'm really concerned about. My friends who have babies as well around my son's age are talking, but he isn't. I work with him every day, from colors, to fruits, vegetables, etc. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I'm really worried about him not talking. The doctor however says he is fine and has no problems. Could someone help me out, telling me other ways to get him to say words, or talk at all.

Give him time. Each child develops at their own pace. If he is not talking by 2 or 3, then it's time to get concerned. Right now his brain is a sponge and he is soaking up every word you say. When the time is right he will blurt out every word he has heard.

Just be patciene! But you could try letting him be around other kids his age and see if he picks up on any of there words. Maybee plan a play group!

I work with a guy who has a boy that didn't walk until he was 3 years, 3 months! All the doctors said that they couldn't see anything that was wrong with him. He just rolled around, to get from place to place. He's 12 now, and is normal in every way.

I think that J_9 is right, give him time. Work with him doing very stimulating things that exicite reaction, like at the zoo.

We tend to worry alot about our little ones don't we? But most of the time it's just nothing, and they are fine.

If the doctor says he is fine, then I would TRY to go with that.

GOD bless you, and your little one.
