		<description><![CDATA[From time to time mothers and fathers ask me, &#8220;When should I begin to worry about my child&#8217;s failure to learn speech?&#8221; Don&#8217;t you think that worry never solves problems? Don&#8217;t worry, just take action. Worrying only creates tensions and anxieties that complicate the problems.
You are most likely safe in waiting until he&#8217;s 30 months [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The first word! How eagerly we wait for it! 
Already he has said &#8220;mama&#8221; and &#8220;dada,&#8221; but these were the result of mere accident (lalling) or of imitation (echolalia). We can&#8217;t honestly claim that he has spoken a true word until he does so consciously and with purpose.
When does this happen? &#8220;The average child&#8221; really [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The preceding stage of child&#8217;s speech was characterized by the repetition of sounds which he had heard himself make. But about the ninth or tenth month he will probably begin imitating or echoing sounds made by others. This type of repetition is called &#8220;echolalia.&#8221;
But let&#8217;s not worry about the name. We&#8217;ll just be glad that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The third stage of speech development usually begins during the seventh to ninth month and is called &#8220;lalling.&#8221; This stage is characterized by the repetition of heard sounds.
Perhaps the great significance of the appearance of this activity is that it indicates that the child is beginning to associate hearing and sound production—an association that is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When the baby is about seven weeks old he begins to show that he is aware of the sounds that he makes. Furthermore, he enjoys making them.
And such variety! With a little imagination you can hear Greek, Chinese, and Arabic in his babbling. The fact is, babies of all nationalities make the same sounds at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Parents are frequently concerned about the development of their children and about their speech problems. They compare notes. &#8220;Jimmy took his first step today!&#8221; &#8220;Patricia said &#8216;mama&#8217; just as plain as could be.&#8221; &#8220;Bobby&#8217;s not talking yet? Why, when my Sally was only ten months old she&#8230;&#8221; &#8220;Maybe my child needs speech therapy.&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[Some parents are unduly concerned about the speech a of their children. Sometimes they suffer needless anguish, and sometimes—in their anxiety—they actually create problems where none had existed.
Others don&#8217;t seem to be aware of defective speech, nor of the far-reaching effects such handicaps may have upon a child&#8217;s educational progress and emotional adjustment.
Still others recognize [...]]]></description>
