Why is your 3 year old speech not clear?

Answer 1

There are many possible reasons, nearly all of them treatable. Have doctors (audiologists especially) checked your child for a hearing disorder? Sometimes, children are partially deaf and because they cannot hear sounds clearly, it becomes difficult to imitate them. Have you taken your child for a neurological exam to rule out such things as autism spectrum disorders? These too can impede a child from speaking clearly, and early intervention can bring some positive results. And finally, have you had your child evaluated by a speech therapist? There are certain children who have developmental delays, and regular speech therapy can do wonders for them.
