Question
My two-and-a-half-year-old son can’t talk at all. Sometimes he just mumbles ‘Mama,’ and when I ask him to speak, he won’t. He had a check-up, and there’s an abnormality in the left frontal lobe of his brain? What is gray matter displacement? He seems to know everything and understand everything, quite lively, but he just won’t talk. How serious is the abnormality in the left frontal lobe and gray matter displacement?
Answer
Hello, the child may have congenital developmental issues. We suggest you visit a children’s hospital for further examination and treatment. The 2-3-year-old period is a critical time for language formation, and it needs our attention. Otherwise, missing this stage can affect the child’s life. We suggest you go to the children’s hospital again for a comprehensive check-up to assess the condition and get expert assistance.
