Hi All,
Hope the little ones are doing fine. Rhea (1.5 yrs old) is fine too,excepting some occasional bouts of tantrums and crankiness. She is now speaking tho only 1-2 words at a time.I have put her in a playskool where they have lots
of plays and all. the teachers say that she does all the activities BUT is absolutely tightlipped. wont utter a single word.Its not that she doesnot know or understand what is being told.. but she WONT say anything.And she is going there from January 2003, thrice a week. Surprisingly she would repeat those words at home, and sometimes the whole line also! She wont interact much with the kids ( the same age as hers) in the skool,but will spent hours playing with a couple of older kids in the neighborhood ( ofcourse they too simply adore her!) . Again she will not speak
a single word infront of our freinds and relatives whom she has not seen much, but will go on asking about them once they leave!
I thot that she wud overcome her shyness in skool , but isn't 3 months a long time to comeout from the shell?
In the skool the teachers say that they have not heard her speaking ever! But the other kids are quite free and talks a lot ( enuf for 18 month olds ) . Dont know whats going on with her. Any input from anyone will be helpful.
