    Is it a developmental delay for a four-year-old child who can't speak? How can I confirm this?

    1.Counted. This condition may be a child's developmental delay.

    Check your baby's intelligence. If you have mental retardation or trisomy 21, it is likely to affect your baby's ability to speak normally. If the baby speaks late, it is also possible that the baby is hearing impaired, and the child should be given a hearing test.

    This is the child's language retardation, which may be caused by the wrong way the parents teach them to speak. The possibility of mental retardation also needs to be ruled out. Give your child an intelligence test to rule out mental retardation.

    If the intelligence is normal, parents need to pay attention to the way they teach their children to speak. Be sure to speak slowly, so that your child can see clearly and imitate speech easily. Also avoid guessing what the child means, because once the parent guesses the child's meaning correctly, the child does not need to express it in words.

    If necessary, ask a language trainer from the local children's ** department to teach your child to speak.

    2.Unable to speak at the age of four, it is possible to consider developmental delay. Take your child to the hospital to check for organic injuries, such as congenital deafness, short sublingual frenulum and congenital cerebral palsy.

    Because of these factors, the child is hearing impaired and mentally retarded and cannot speak, so it is necessary to **these** first. If the above organic lesions are excluded, consider childhood autism. The main methods include medication, education and training, and comprehensive behavioral interventions, which must be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.

    Communicate with your child and tell him what he is interested in.

    3.Language delay refers to a child's verbal expression or language comprehension ability that is significantly behind the normal developmental level of children of the same age due to various reasons. Factors such as mental retardation, hearing impairment, artarticulation organ diseases, central nervous system diseases, and poor language environment are common causes of language delay in children.

    If your child is found to have language delays, try to find the cause. In the absence of these causes, a child's language development is significantly delayed, which is called idiopathic language development disorder or developmental language delay.

    I think so. You can try to say a word to let your baby follow you to learn, if his vocal cords can't make sounds, it means that he is stunted.

    I think it's really stunting; Because according to common sense, a 4-year-old child should be able to speak, and he can't speak yet, so it is likely that he has autism.

    I think it's a developmental delay, you can usually see if the child is doing things slowly, whether he sleeps for a long time, and if it happens, you need to go to the hospital**.

    The children in the family are almost 4 years old, and the children cannot write yet, not because the children are stunted.

    caused. It is because the time for children to write now will be postponed when the child is in the first grade of primary school, and then he will slowly develop the habit of writing for children. When some children are in kindergarten, the kindergarten teachers will only think about playing with the children.

    Even though some private kindergartens teach children to learn, most of the learning content taught is mainly based on reading ancient poems, and they do not start to think about letting children write. <>

    If the child is almost 4 years old, if parents want to train their children to write, they can slowly let the child hold a pen at home and try to draw. Exercise the child's pen posture first, many children due to the age group from birth to 4 years old, the child has not adapted to the posture of holding the pen, parents should train the child at home. In this way, when the child begins to learn to write in the first grade of elementary school, the child will master the correct writing posture and will be able to write a beautiful hand.

    When the child is 4 years old, parents will have educational anxiety and want their children to learn to write as soon as possible. In such a situation, parents can only choose to teach their children at home, because the teachers in the school have a relatively short teaching time for their children. In fact, the reason why today's kindergartens do not train children to write prematurely is mainly because of the fact that children's hand development is not yet perfect.

    It will be a little difficult for the child to master the posture of holding the pen, and wait until the child grows up a little bit before starting to exercise the child's writing. <>

    When faced with the problem of educating children to write homework, parents must not be too anxious, but only by letting children teach literacy first, so that children can know more words. Slowly let the child grasp the structure between the word and the font, so that the child can realize more words. It will also be more convenient when writing, only if the child can recognize words, will the child learn to write.

    No. Because it's normal for a child to not be able to write at the age of 4, and there are many reasons, it doesn't have to be due to developmental delay.

    It is too early for a 4-year-old child to learn to write, and we do not advocate that a 4-year-old learn to write. 4-year-old children have not yet grasped the hand, and the stroke order of writing is not in place, and it is not rudimentary, and it is not easy to develop good habits. We can let a 4-year-old child hold a pen and draw with a pen.

    As long as the child eats well and spirited, sleeps well, and has normal bowel movements, the child will have no problem, it is recommended that your 4-year-old child's hand muscle development is not enough, in fact, it is not suitable for writing, and the child is one year older, the strength is enough, and the child starts to learn on the line, and premature learning will do more harm than good to the child.

    Further, there are logical vocabulary: there is not, is not, altogether, leftover, addition and subtraction, etc. Time vocabulary: day, night, morning and evening, yesterday, today, week, season, first, then, immediately etc

    Emotional vocabulary such as personal pronouns, can't you, want to do it, know or not, and other emotional and emotional vocabulary: crying, laughing, hurting, itchy, happy, angry, nervous, excited, etc. to communication, two-person dialogue, three-person dialogue, understand the question, will take the initiative to ask questions.

    If the child's speech is still unclear at the age of four and is very abnormal, it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to find out the reason why the child is not speaking clearly. First of all, you should go to the otolaryngology department to check whether the child's tongue-tie hair is abnormal, and also check the child's vocal cords for abnormal diseases.

    In addition to these two reasons, it is necessary to see whether the child has brain development backwards, if there is brain development delay, it can also cause the child to have language development delay, resulting in the child's language speech is not clear, so it is necessary to observe whether the child's intellectual development is abnormal, and if necessary, go to the pediatric neurology department for corresponding examinations, except whether the child has abnormal brain nerve development, resulting in impaired language development.
