Take him to the doctor, have his hearing checked, if he is making grunting noises and such, there may be something that is blocking his hearing like water in the ear canal and or his vocal ability, Best to learn now and get him help, speaking and hearing adds so much to being able to comprehend the world around you.\n\nYou may want to consider the possibility of autism.  Children with autism often lose their words they previously had such as baba, mama, dada, and etc. around age 2 to 3. \nPut up phrases and words all around your house on flashcards, read them with him, see if he'll try to mimick what you are reading, or try to sound out the words with you.\n\nGood Luck

If your son was left alone in school with no supervision you should write a letter of complaint to the Director of Education at your local authority.\n\nIf you need help doing this, go to a Citizen's Advice Bureau  - link below to help you find a local one. The CAB should also be able to offer advice on what you should do and what your legal rights are.\n\nIf you have a social worker you should talk to him/her about it too.\n\nI hope things work out ok for you and your son.

Yells at you MORE when hes with his family? Why is he yelling at you EVER??? This is totally disrespectful and you should not stand for it. You need to implement a "No YELLING" rule, none is allowed in the house. If he ever starts yelling, just turn and leave the room, leave the house if you have to. He will learn that it does not accomplish anything to yell. He is teaching your child bad things, and this should not be allowed. You need to come up with a better way to communicate. Counseling can help here if you don't feel you know any strategies to improve communication.

Just keep talking to her. a child at that age should be starting to form short sentences. but just keep talking and showing her what things mean. children learn by things being repeated over and over again. when you say a word, like ball, show her what a ball is. just repeat this with everything. when she points to something that she wants and doesn't know how to say what it is, then tell her what it is, and she'll eventually learn. just talk to her about everything you do and say. just help her to understand the meaning of words and what things are and she'll be more compelled to communicate.

From my one year old:\naahh gaa gooba moo ba gooba

My son has high functioning austism as well. He is 5 now and became verbal last year. His still likes to play by himself some of the time but he interacts with his siblings and some of the kids from his school. Find something that he really enjoys. For my son it is letters and numbers. I bought flash cards for him and invited a couple of the neighbor kids over. We had races to see who could find certain numbers. He loved it. Don't try too many kids though or he could feel overwhelmed. A lot of his interaction came from watching the other kids do things. He wouldn't go down the slide until he watched the other kids do it over and over again. Make a structured "game" of the play at first and then slowly let it become more spontanious. Good Luck you can email me at sbirch5@yahoo.com if you would like to discuss this further

Congrats on your baby! The most important thing you can do is spend time with your child. Sound too easy? It is well worth it. Love them, care for them, talk to them, sing to them, read to them, play with them, cuddle them, show lots of affection. The "teaching" part will come easily enough. You will discover that your child wants nothing more than your attention and time, and when they get that, they will shine!

my 5-year-old has this.  He is perfectly fine otherwise, no impairment in learning or hearing.  He was diagnosed at 26 months.  Everyone said he would "just start talking one day". Not true, he has been in intense speech therapy since he was 3-1/2 and is doing much better.  He is enrolled in preschool and loves it, will be in kindergarten next fall.  His speech pathologist is working with him out of a book on dyspraxia, which is very close to what he seems to have and he is doing better, but will probably need speech well into his grade-school years.  Dyspraxia is a neurological disorder that can be helped with proper help, it does not mean that your child has any other type of delay.  Make sure that your child does not get "labeled" as having some sort of learning disorder if that is not the case, it is very easy for them to place them in classes with children who need more special kind of help and that will not benefit your child.  Also make sure he gets proper speech development help, sounds like you are on the right track by seeing it so young!  Good luck to you.

perhaps you can say it without a single word. you can give him attention more than usually, take good care, always be there when he needs you, or some sort like that. love does not always came through words.

Have you spoken to the teacher regarding your sons fear? Perhaps the teacher can sit and chat with him away from any other students.\nIt may be the yelling of instructions that he is scared of.\nYou need to discover what it is your boy is actually scared of before you can help him overcome the fear.\nYour son may not feel confident enough to participate within a group, maybe some one to one lessons will help.

Well, I've never caught anybody watching me, but if I were you, i would tell my folks what's going on. And how old is the boy? If he's like 9 or 10, it could be just curiosity and nothing to be real upset about, but if he's older, then I suggest taking action.

Read to him, talk to him (no baby talk). Go on walks together and examine plants, flowers and animals you see along the way. Play simple board games with him. Make learning fun and he will respond by wanting to learn. We did this with our grand daughter and she is in 1st Grade an A Honor roll student, and loves to learn, it's an adventure for her. Don't put any pressure on your son though, make everything a game. We bought things like a plastic table mat with clocks on one side where she could draw in the hands of the clock to tell the time she went to school, came home, had lunch etc. On the reverse of the mat is the same thing but in written sentences with spaces for her to fill in the missing word. Another table mat we bought for her is a map of the world (simplified), on the reverse is a map of the USA with all the states outlined and named. We bought jig saw puzzles for her from the time she could hold something and place it where she wanted it to go (rather than just wildly throw it). Start with 10 or 12 piece puzzles and build up to the bigger ones.\nKids learn an amazing amount of stuff very quickly, they like to poke about in dirt-make that a learning thing, is the dirt wet or dry, what kind of stones are in the dirt, are there any bugs in the dirt, how many bugs are there? After finishing with the dirt we go wash our hands and feel and see the soap wash all the dirt and germs off, look at the colors on the soap bubbles on our hands. The possibilities are endless with young children, just make it fun!

It is possible that your son has a disorder called dyslexia, where he cannot comprehend written words. His letters may be mixed up. Get help before he enters first grade. Make sure he's able to write. It is possible. Be patient with him

This is very challenging, indeed!   Time to bring on your "big guns" of creativity...\n\nAct, but do not REACT.\n\nThe first thing that really stands out to me, is that he is really frustrated and feels unable to communicate effectively...and this is where you can really be the hero for him: to show him by your example how far you will go to continue communicating lovingly when you are frustrated.  I know it's tough, and he really needs you to be "bigger" in heart & wisdom than he is.\n\nI imagine that trying to verbally communicate with your son when he is angry and frustrated is nearly impossible.  But I do think that when he is calm, you and he can sit down together to problem solve this together and make a simple plan.  You might be surpised how distressing this anger stuff is to him, as well as be ignited by his brilliance of the ideas that you he would come up with.  But you already know that...;-] Either way, these conversations, however brief the interaction, will lay the groundwork -- on their own -- for the very ideas that he needs to draw from when he's so irrate. \n\n  Remember that often boys' verbal skills develop much slower than girls, biologicaly speaking.  (Do you remember this when you were his age?) My son couldn't speak understandably until he was 5; now an adult, he's an excellent & sensitive communicator.  \n\nSecondly, be very careful about falling into the trap of diagnosis and labels...They're rather like "pin the tail on the donkey", with lots of misses in the dark! While your main intention is to be a responsible and wise, loving dad, who doesn't miss anything crucial, I sense this could easily backfire on you, especially when you are asking him about symptoms of psychosis.  (Beware of projections -- not helpful.) .  Too much information for a 4 year old child who's already stressed.   Toss out the spanking right along with that, because that's really stressing him.  He wonders why you get to hit, and he doesn't. \n\nI never met a child who didn't respond to love, especially from his Big Buddy!\n\nOn the other hand, it is not loving to allow him to hurt you or anyone else.  Thrashing his own room, however, might be another matter...it's his stuff.  The basic element of developing his agression (competition, motivation, hutszpah! but not meanness) is normal, and You can be a responsible loving parent by not repessing his natural (vital, life force) agression and guiding or directing him in how to express his frustrations, safely.  I would clear his room of anything dangerous or hard, limit him to that kind of upset in his own room -- not agression towards anyone -- but allowing him a safe place and manner to vent his feelings until he is ready to rejoin the family.  He's not in his room for punishment, just for safety, just like you guys talked about it.\n\nNonetheless, I can well imagine this does not happen only at home, so you'll need to come up with a similar plan at Grandma's and the grocery store, etc. Remember the key here is not to stop but to guide him.  How do I know he's not the "Child from Hell"?  Because as soon as he calms down (on his own) he WANTS to return to a connected, loving state. And just like anything else thus far, he is looking to you for an answer to something that as yet seems just too big for himself to deal with.  \n\nUltimately, you both will not need him to rip up his room, because together, you will teach each other how to breathe, calm down in the moment, and communicate. You will be mastering this yourself, and teaching him this at every stage of his development.\n\nRight now, this is a stage (tough as it may be), which he will grow out of with your patient and brave guidance...and of course, Love.\n\nLove and Light to you all!\n\nP.S.> IF a diagnosis alone must be considered, I would first look at Asperger's or some other form of Autism, which tends to be

First, I'd talk to his pediatrician and/or see a neurologist (I'm sure he's had one in the past with this sort of problem).  Second, ask the doctor (or look into it yourself) about enrolling him in sometype of therapy-- I'm not sure what type would be appropriate- in addition to typical therapy (emotional type- to help him find better coping strategies)also maybe you could enroll him in something like physical therapy or occupational therapy-- where at least they could maybe fit him with some type of helmet or device or install something on the walls to protect him.  Not sure if you live in an area where this is available or how affordable an option it is (I'm from a small town where these things just don't exist) but I would strongly recommend seeing the doctors and considering some sort of therapy.  I truly wish you and your child the best of luck.
