| I agree, since you noticed the motor delay, getting your son assessed for early intervention is a good idea. My son had early intervention by the time he was two years old because he was speech delayed. I totally recomend it. There really are some wonderful teachers out there. |

| My son (he's 4) and he has meltdowns. I know when he is going to have them. It seems like they are linked to anxiety, at least that’s what I can tell. Sometimes if something doesn’t go as planned he starts to go into one, but then he comes back out. Right now his meltdowns are linked to my driveway.... |

| I was thinking that because the invitation has both of their names, then yes you should give to both.

I know because you really dont know the twin brother you wouldnt know what he ... |

| This is where I get confused. My son had around 10-15 words when he was 2 1/2 years old. He didn't start to speak fully until he was 3. In between all of this he learned all of his letters, shapes, numbers and his colors. Now he is 4, he doesnt echo anymore, but he can't have that back and forth con... |
