Abstract
Relatively little material has been written about teaching a child to speak. That a child does learn to talk seems well supported by most authorities; and this is based upon experimental evidence. Just how a child can be taught to speak is not so widely discussed. Many writers have ignored this aspect of speech development, and the author is inclined to believe that many parents are completely unaware of it. The number of speech defectives in the country today indicates widespread ignorance of this problem.
It is the purpose of this study (1) to show how parents can aid the speech development of their children; (2) to determine the ways in which parents often hinder their children’s speech development.
