Hi all. I need some help/advice/reassurance!! My three year old is barely talking. He knows lots of words, animals, colours etc. but he just does not talk. I have 2 older children, one is special needs and the Hv is no help. All she seems to b interested in is carting him off to speech therapy, I don't think that will help. I think his issue is shyness. How can I encourage him to get out of his shell and speak. He has no probs following instructions and is potty trained. Has anybody else experienced this and how can I help
