Child not speaking
My son is 1 year 7 months oldhowever still he his speaking only one word that too not too regularly and despite of all our family efforts he is not speaking words. However he is super active in all other aspects ie he understands all our commands and do things which look like 3 year child. So what might be reason he is not speaking further what course of action should be taken.
