Hello,
My wife is worried that our son (15 month old) hasn't learned any signs to refer to things he wants. For example, making the sign for milk when he wants milk. My wife says her friend's kids do some of these signs.
Is it important for us to teach him that? Wouldn't just normal spoken language suffice at some point? Why do people teach this?
Thanks!
Matt
