How can I help my baby who is two years old and can't speak clearly?

Patient's question:

Cannot pronounce "daddy" and "mommy," but can understand. Reflective ability is quite strong, but will never speak.
Time of onset: Examination results: What kind of assistance is needed: Is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
By design, right? If answering previously wasn't a problem, then Mom wouldn't need to worry so much. The baby might be doing this to attract the adult's attention; the more strongly you correct her, the more she seems to find it fun. Give gentle, restrained reminders to the baby to pay attention. Try your best not to appear overly focused on this behavior of hers when she's around. Observe carefully and cautiously. Maybe slowly, she'll feel it's no longer interesting and it will improve. This seems like a transitional phase for the baby. My baby used to speak clearly before, but now she's a bit stuttering. I'll slowly tell you that she's getting better now.
