A member asked:

Can people with cri du chat syndrome communicate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Delayed but do talk: Most cri du chat patients are able to communicate in short sentences by the age of ten. Their receptive language is more advanced than their expressive skills, but will remain quite limited.
