Re: [LandauKleffnerSyndrome] Should I start my son learning sign

I am a great fan of sign language..although we use Makaton as we found BSl too difficult for Lititias comprehension. she talks well now but still uses it when she cant verbalise. Its also been useful as she goes to a Sn school and they use it too.
