The frustration is real.
Your child is two and still not saying any words, or at least not consistently.
But he understands EVERYTHING… sometimes too well!
So why isn’t he talking yet.
At first it was cute, giving the puppy dog eyes and following directions like a little saint… I mean, he is adorable and everyone else seems to think so ?
But now the struggle is settling in more.
This whole throwing a tantrum over seemingly nothing, or the moments when he looks at you and really seems to want to tell you something but no words are coming out, or the hitting…. Let’s not even start down that rabbit trail… I mean, this just isn’t cute anymore.
Your sweet little angel seems to be transforming into someone you don’t even recognize.
Your child may be showing symptoms of Childhood of Apraxia (or CAS as it’s often called). Check out more about what this means and how common it is over here.
But how do you know if that’s really what it is and not just a case of the terrible twos?
