Understanding why a child is non-verbal can be complex, with several possible reasons behind it. The first and most common reason is a language delay, which includes a subgroup often referred to as "late talkers," although this isn’t an official term. Another potential reason is autism, while speech disorders also play a significant role. Additionally, genetic disorders or rare diseases can contribute to a child being non-verbal.
However, the specific labels and reasons aren’t our primary concern. What truly matters is providing the right treatment. The approach to treatment varies depending on the child's age—whether they are below three years old or above four.
In this video, we’ll focus on understanding these reasons and, more importantly, on how to move forward with a guide for the appropriate treatment your child needs.
