A. Maybe your child is unable to figure out that thing that you’re pointing towards so start with keeping the object close to the child put a finger on that thing and say then again when the age when you are doing it out towards the object by touching the object and teach your child slowly it is going to get better because the coordination with kids sometimes can’t take a little longer time

Q. my son in now 1 yr and 23 days. And now he used to touch and feel using his fingers. Also he uses his fingers to point something. But he uses the index finger of his left hand and the middle finger of his right hand. He is not using the index finger of his right to point something. Am frequently trying to use his index finger by folding all the rest of the fingers and put the index finger to point out something. But he is not doing it alone. Is there any problem with this?

Q. my baby boy of 17 months(corrected age 16 m) is not saying any words yet. he babbles all day. name response,eye contact, gestures like shaking head no,yes etc are good. he started pointing and following point at 14 months but these days he doesn't follow my point properly; when I point something to him he looks at my hand instead or makes ponting gesture himself with his finger(he copies my gesture of pointing instead of looking at what am pointing at).only rarely he follows my point correctly after many attempts. #asktheexpert
