Just after some advise.
My 19 year old is quiet in personality, reserved, coy, shy, and quite clingy to mum.
That said he goes to soft plays and playgroups and is more than confident.
My concern is that he only regilarly says a handful of words and those nearly always have to be prompted as he will choose to make 'ah ah ah' sounds or talk threw closed mouth 'mmm mmm' he copies pitch and tone of the words i say to him but doesnt babble, doesnt say any letter sounds etc.
the handful of words he can say he says clearly! 'Hiya,hello, yeah, ta, batman!' He can pronounce all those sounds and letters
He understands absolutly everything we say to him and can point to things we name etc.
Should i be concerned? I was thinking maybe he has slight hearing difficulty!? So maybe get his ears checked??
