TV ki awaaz sunta hai… par jab maa bulaati hai toh respond nahi karta.”
Sounds familiar? Many parents confuse this with “shararat,” “dhyaan nahi hai,” or even hearing loss. But often, this can be a condition called Auditory Processing Disorder (APD)
What is Auditory Processing Disorder?
APD is not about the ears, it’s about the brain. A child with APD can hear sounds normally, but their brain struggles to understand, filter, and process speech.
That’s why they respond to TV or music (clear, predictable sounds), but don’t respond when someone speaks directly, especially if there’s background noise.
Signs Parents Commonly Notice:
1. Child reacts quickly to TV, mobile sounds, or cartoons, but ignores when called by name.
2. Frequently asks “kya?” or “repeat karo.”
3. Struggles to follow multi-step instructions.
4. Difficulty understanding in noisy environments like classrooms.
5. May appear inattentive, confused, or “lost in their own world.
Remember: If your child hears the TV but not you, it may not be “ignorance” — it may be Auditory Processing Disorder. Early intervention can change the way your child learns, listens, and communicates.
