Rodzice bardzo często niepokoją się o stan mowy dziecka. Mowa nie jest
umiejętnością wrodzoną. Człowiek nabywa tej umiejętności w ciągu całego
swojego życia w kontaktach z ludźmi. Niepok�j rodzic�w budzi fakt, iż ich
normalnie fizycznie rozwijające się dziecko m�wi mało, nie chce rozmawiać z
rodzicami, r�wieśnikami, ma mały zas�b sł�w albo nie m�wi jeszcze wcale.
Wszelkie nieprawidłowości w rozwoju psychoruchowym dziecka mogą prowadzić do
zaburzeń mowy. I odwrotnie: zaburzenia mowy mogą mieć wpływ na uszkodzenia
innych funkcji. W poradniku autorka wyjaśnia, jak odr�żnić op�źnienie rozwoju
mowy wynikające z indywidualnego tempa rozwoju dziecka od op�źnienia, kt�re
wskazuje, że dziecko nie rozwija się prawidłowo, kiedy należy się zgłosić do
logopedy oraz jak stymulować mowę dziecka.
