RE: Finally said no!

in #parenting8 years ago

People are always comparing their kids to others. I agree with you that they are all different and develop differently. My son was not up to the "standards" for speech when he turned 2. We took him to a local Tyke Talks and they said he was doing okay. He wasn't speaking at the standard but had great comprehension of language. They said that some children lack confidence especially if they are being exposed to more than one language. Sure enough out child was being exposed to French and English. When he did start talking he caught up to the standard rather quickly.
Our Doctor stated that all kids learn to walk, talk and use the toilet. There aren't any that don't, so don't worry yourself about it. That was the greatest advice that we had received.

Thanks so much for the comments, it's so true. Everyone does learn to walk, talk and use the toilet. I'm pretty sure in a few years no one is even going to care when their baby first did X, Y or Z....by then the focus will be on something entirely different.
I'll check out your blog, thanks very much.
