Hello everyone.. I have a beautiful little boy who is 17 months old. He was born in April 06. He did start to walk at about 8 months and is very mobile, he can climb, run, all of that. BUT..he has stopped talking and now just communicates by saying "da" to everything. He can say mum, but has stopped. I know he very bright, but is just being lazy, as I can undersdtand what he wants by grunts and moans alone? I have read to him, and tried to encourage speech but to no avail yet.. it really is like he has just given up. I should say, I do not mix him with many other young friends too often, I have no car so we spend the days together when my Husband is at work. Also, he is sometimes engrossed in the TV ads, to the point where I have switch it off to engage him, and some perticular ad's give him a fright, bring him to tears. I'm trying to have it on less, but I do watch more than I should as my car is off the road. I am puting on music now as an alternative, we have a dance but still no joy
