My son is going to be 3 in May, he doesn't talk much yet and has just started seeing a language and speech therapist. He says about 10 -15 single words but seems to understand quite a lot.. I know it is quite common for boys to be delayed in talking especially compared to girls but we are worried that the problem is deeper than that. When you speak to him he doesn't react or look at you and when you tell him off (which seems to be a lot lately as he has become very naughty which could be down to jealously of younger sibling) he doesn't seem to get it. He does play with other children a bit and can be very affectionate but he doesn't seem to be progressing in his development. Even the L&S therapist says he isn't giving as much eye contact as he should be for a child of his age. I have booked him in for a hearing test too.I know that something isn't right, Im so worried and scared about finding out the truth as can't face someone telling me my child has learning difficulties but know Im being selfish by putting it off. What should I do??
