What are the reasons why children talk late

Patient's question:

My mom hasn't been able to cook recently and often says she has a headache and feels dizzy. The key is that I don't really know what's going on, but she just seems a bit down. What could be the reason for a child speaking late?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, when a baby is born, their brain is in an underdeveloped stage, and it gradually develops after birth. So, being late in speech development could be normal or abnormal. Generally, the development of the language center varies greatly. Some children develop it more fully at around one year old, while others may be slightly delayed. I suggest you wait and see. If the baby still cannot pronounce clearly after the age of three, then it's advisable to take them to the hospital for a check-up.
