I wrote a paper on speech impediments in small children for a linguistics class at BYU. I read that delayed speech is becoming more and more prevalent, and many children psychologist believe it is because parents have a tendency to talk at their children, rather than attempting to converse with them. I'm most certainly not saying that's the issue here, but it couldn't hurt to consider it.
