We have a grand daughter in other country and 2 years of age. She and her mother stay alone through out the day . How to make sure she is developing normal as there is no kids company around .

My Daughter delivered twin girls in March 2022. One baby was normal at birth. The other baby at birth was underweight and had cleft lip and cleft palate. This child underwent surgery for Cleft lip in June 2022 and for Cleft palate in Dec 2022. As of now (Aug 2023) parameters in respect of Height, weight, and physical growth are all normal. While the child that was normal at birth has started to walk and is able to utter few words, this child stands up on her own holding a support and walks few steps with support. The child is not able to walk on her own without support. Likewise, she screams, makes noise but is not able to utter words. Her timings for Sleep, food, activity are all normal and response level is satisfactory. When will she start to walk on her own and begin to utter words? Any special exercise to be given as support?

Hi Ma'am I have a kid who is 4.5 years and my wife is a Home Maker. Post Covid unfortunately due to market challenges I have been focusing more towards work and less time for my family. This has been disturbing my family life which i am aware . My Son has been facing a few challenges like he is more addicted to mobile after working for over 12 hrs a day you are left with lesser energy to play with the kid. Also he has been in his own zone (world). Inspite of him being 4.5 years he does not respond on whatever we chat or we discuss with him he does not reply . Same challenges the teacher faces in school he does not respond to the teacher in school as well. He does maintain eye to eye contact he also understands what we say but fails to reply back? Don't know how to or whom to address this problem

Hi Dr. Aarti, My Son now. 5 yrs 10 months old is still wearing diaper. Me and my wife tried many times to keep him off diapers but to no avail. Though he occasionally urinates in washroom when without diapers and we ask him to do so, but he will always ask for diaper to pass out stool. If we refuse to put on a diaper he will simply just not pass out stool. Once we tried it for more than a day to not give him diaper but even after a day when he still did not pass stoll we gave him diaper thinking that keeping stool under pressure may hamper his health. Now he has to go to Class 1 and we fear how he will cope up, as till K.G. there are maids (aya's) who change diapers at school, if needed, and school time is also upto 3 hours. Please help us with what to do? Thanks in advance.
