You already know the answer most of the time
It’s annoying to the child
It’s not helping the kid
My kid tries to get it, stands near the object and points. I describe the description of the object before handing it to her. I try to force her to repeat the description and sometimes I get a word or two and that is it 😅
I don't recommend teaching gestures, in my experience, it reinforces that they don't need to speak or verbalize what they require. We can not escape frustration in therapy, it's unrealistic. A bit of frustration helps them to use expressive language. They will pair the elimination of frustration by saying what they want!
I've had a nonverbal child who had one and two words and for a year who has made remarkable progress in speech without the use of gestures.
It's ok for a child to be mildly uncomfortable to achieve the goal. Frustration is a part of life!
Omg I always do this 🙈
What if the kid is able to point to what they want? Isn’t that considered a gesture?
Yes it is but that isn't a very good gesture, because it doesn't carry a lot of meaning
Is it such a true statement and I’ve seen a lot of this happen, and now I understand how to do it better
Hi the problem is when we ask him what do you want he repeats what do you want…then if i say give xyz he says give xyz..how can we overcome this
Follow the video... I was talking about the solution
The video talks about teaching gestures however in case child is throwing tantrums or in case he gets annoyed but in our case he is not annoyed but he only repeats what we tell him to, so still is it better to teach gestures instead of going ahead with developing his speech
@@rajeshoberoi8716 yes use gestures, because you want him to use it indepently and then use those gestures to link to words
