Is there any hope for babies with language delay? Why is there such a big difference in recovery expectations?

[Introduction]: Some parents said: “My child is not as good as a three-year-old child when he is 5 years old, and he cannot communicate normally with his peers. Even if he communicates with adults, he has great difficulties. The language understanding and expression are very poor. The cause is due to language retardation, but some children of the same age are similar to my children in the early stage. Why do other children grow up but my child keeps stopping? Can the developmental retardation heal itself? Or language retardation Is there a real way to recover?”

There are as many as millions of discussions on this issue on search engines, but most of them are the speeches of ordinary netizens, or the self-talk of some parents of children with language development delays. It is rare to see authoritative experts have the final word. thesis. Because even different majors will have their own different opinions based on their own experience, practical cases, etc., and there are more controversies.

Babies have language development delays, and family conflicts are bound to be many. From rehabilitation to raising, there are always various conceptual differences between the two generations. In particular, there are many different understandings about the expectations of children’s recovery.

The biggest controversy is the question of how to recover. Some families persist in finding solutions for their children, and some parents lose confidence after experiencing the arduous recovery process and give up their last hope of correction for their children.

Can language delay be completely resolved?

Babies with language retardation are most afraid of some congenital reasons, because such a baby’s recovery expectations are really not optimistic.

  1. Language development delay caused by mental retardation.

    Intellectual developmental disorder itself is a major problem in medicine. If the problem of intellectual development is not solved, then language development cannot be solved. Because language and intelligence develop simultaneously, language is the result of wisdom awakening and cognitive learning. Without intellectual support, understanding and expression will not form language symbols. From the perspective of language elements such as grammar, semantics, phonetics, and pragmatics, they are both A certain learning ability is required to obtain it. Therefore, it is very difficult for children with language development delay to recover, and it is unlikely that they will heal themselves.

  2. Language development delay caused by cerebral palsy.

    The causes of cerebral palsy are also more complicated. It is a serious pathological disease, especially cerebral palsy that destroys the language center, which will have irreversible negative effects on various functions of language, such as visual language center, motor language center, and vision. Sexual language center, written language center, etc., even if the children have normal intelligence, they will show a lot of backwardness in physical or language. For this kind of children, parents need to rationally treat the expected value of rehabilitation, maintain confidence, and use intellectual development. Make up for the lag in behavior and let the child develop as much as possible.

  3. Language development delay caused by neurological reasons.

For example, children with autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit, and hyperactivity disorder are only one of the core symptoms. There are many rehabilitation problems, language is only one of them, and even some causes are associated with life, and they are all so far. Medical problems, rehabilitation is very difficult, and the hope of self-healing is slim.

What kind of language developmental delay is easy to recover?

  1. Some types caused by organic reasons, such as hearing impairment, cleft palate disorder, dysarthria, etc., children’s language development lags behind children of the same age. After solving pathological problems and repairing congenital defects, they can use functional rehabilitation, Language correction will quickly catch up with children of the same age in terms of language ability.
  2. Because of the lack of early language environment, the language development lacks necessary education and guidance, and the language development is temporarily lagging behind. Between school age 0-6, there are many opportunities to recover and return to normal language skills.

    Linguistic developmental delay is a comprehensive subject with complex reasons and far-reaching impact. So far, I have not seen a case of that child recovering on his own without the help of the orthodontist. The recovery time for these children is very precious, and the recovery process is long and arduous.

How to develop a rehabilitation strategy?

The rehabilitation results of language retardation depend largely on the children’s own development level, especially the physiological development basis that determines the prognosis. The same intervention skills and training methods have very different results on different children.

Therefore, they may need to intervene in more comprehensive technical applications, training skills, specific training programs, and consider the following situations:

1. Evaluation is the foundation and the starting point . All training plans and rehabilitation skills must be based on the evaluation results, that is, it is necessary to understand the current level of the child’s language ability, key defects, possible difficulties, easily disturbed factors, etc., to understand these, to determine the training. Starting point, goal, and training content. To ensure that the training can be effective, and get continuous improvement.

2. The age limit and the gap between backwardness. Regardless of age development restrictions, it is easy to make the training content out of reality, because the age is too young, you must consider the limitations that can be allowed in the development process. For example, a 3-year-old baby and a 7-year-old baby need different starting points and different goals in terms of training language understanding and perception.

3. Individual differences and learning ability. The reasons for language development delay are very different, leading to different language learning abilities of children. There is a clear gap between a certain degree of autonomous language learning ability and complete loss of language perception. Others may not feel it, but many language rehabilitation trainers can I realize that the difficulty of their language learning is huge.

4. Priority goals and actual prognosis. The ultimate goal of language retardation must be to make up for the language ability defects, to ensure that the language level of the age-appropriate stage is reached, and to develop independent language development capabilities. For some more serious and very difficult children, the primary goal must be to ensure the function of language reception and transmission. For other children, who have a certain language foundation, priority may be given to improving the perception of language, as well as the improvement of understanding and thinking.

Language development delay is never solved by unilateral rehabilitation training. Parents need to make changes. Not only must they master some family counseling training skills, but also pay attention to improving and adjusting the family nurturing environment.
