While I was zooming with a new family, I observed mom trying to get her 2-year-old, pre-verbal son to engage and talk by telling him, “say tickle” and “say cookie” and other simple words. She was also trying to give him simple commands to “come here” and “give me that”. He was noticeably not interested and was making frustrated sounds as mom was trying to physically pull him to interact. This mama was doing nothing wrong. She was only doing what she knew how to do. She needed my guidance.
