Could it be DLD?

Some signs to look for:
🔹 Difficulty understanding instructions
🔹 Trouble expressing thoughts clearly
🔹 Struggles with storytelling or conversation
🔹 Challenges with reading and writing
🔹 Limited vocabulary compared to peers
🔹 Difficulty following or remembering verbal information

DLD is not caused by hearing loss or intelligence differences. It’s a language disorder with no obvious cause.

Early support makes a big difference. For more information about DLD and resources go to DLDandMe.org
