[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 639389, member: 1991"] Update on BG3 - he's now 13 months old and still has no words he uses. He makes himself understood by pointing and grunting, basically. He now understands "no" and often cries when told "no". Crocodile tears, easy child 2/difficult child 2 says and I think she's right. He just doesn't want to be thwarted. He doesn't seem to understand "ta". easy child 2/difficult child 2 thinks he does understand but is ignoring it. I'm not so sure. He's clever, he can work things well. He has a drink bottle with a push button release on the straw and he is very good at opening that up when he wants a drink. He got into the Fisher Price cash register and got the coins out. Of course, at that stage they became missiles like everything else. Since we talked about it, easy child 2/difficult child 2 has increased his social contact with other kids. She's put in her CV to the local child care centre (guess who gets to babysit? She can't afford to pay for child care for her child) and is actively working to encourage broader skills. He now posts shapes into a shapes ball and we name each shape as he does it. easy child when she was 20 months old knew all her shapes by name because we'd done this with her. As I said in an earlier post, I don't know what "normal" is. Marg [/QUOTE]
