Hello Doctor.. My son is 18 months old but he still don’t try to speak. Whenever we try to talk to him, he just avoids us and gets busy in playing. Although he understands everything but I am worried because he doesn’t want to speak what we ask him to speak. He only makes giggle sounds. He was saying papa when he was 10 months old but now he don’t even say Papa. Please guide.
