Language

A language disorder is an impairment in the ability to understand others (receptive language), or in the ability to share thoughts, ideas, and feelings completely (expressive language),

Any speech or language problem is likely to have a significant effect on the child’s social and academic skills and behavior. The earlier a child’s speech and language problems are identified and treated, the less likely it is that problems will persist or get worse. Early speech and language intervention can help children be more successful with reading, writing, schoolwork, and interpersonal relationships.
