Speech therapy
My daughter would turning to 3 years old on 21st January 2017. My daughter has not yet developed talking clearly though she will be blabbering whatever she likes. If you sit with her and talk she would repeat the words exactly though not clearly. But when she is in public she won't utter a word. It's been 3 months she started going to playschool. Teacher are complaining that she is not at all responding orally though she is catching all other activities and they have started interacting with her using signs. They are forcing us to have her speech therapy done. I am really confused of its normal thing for a child to develop late speech. She is talkative at home but not elsewhere.

Definitely not normal.. baby needs development assessment before leaving it for too late. Earlier you intervene better the results
