> Everyone talks to their babies a lot
Most people talk to their babies at least sometimes, but observing families there are huge differences between how much people talk to their babies, how they talk to them, what subjects they talk about, how many different languages they use, etc.
- EGreg 3y agoIf they have a lot of siblings there is even more speech
- 2Gkashmiri 3y agoI have a family with a lot of kids. Their neighbour was living with his small family somewhere else for a year where their kids had the sibling and grandparents to talk to. The younger of two had speech problems. Then they returned home and the neighbour kids made both of them to talk in a matter of weeks and months.
- EGreg 3y agoSo is this confirming my point? Sorry, I am a bit confused who made who talk etc.
- 2Gkashmiri 3y agoMy relatives who had the bunch of kids and their neighbour who had two kids who wouldnt talk.

- jacobolus 3y agoThis is my observations, but there are also numerous studies demonstrating this if you go looking. For instance, a 2m search turns up https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3440540/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3440540/
