What Language Delay Sounds Like

This morning Younger Daughter remarked:
"they were dissing appear."
Of course, she meant they were disappearing.

And she still says "she was wearing her new frog!"

Why is language such a struggle for YD?

Older Daughter's theory:  "YD loves to talk, but she doesn't have a passion for listening."

    Just now I remarked to my own older daughter (age 13, has language delay, newly concerned with matters of personal appearance):

    "You look very sophisticated."

    Her response:

    "You mean sophocated?"

    Me:

    "No, I mean sophisticated."

    Older daughter:

    "Oh, OK."
