A member asked:
Should i be worried that my 3 year old daughter talks more her own language that she has made up, then in english?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not unusual: 3-6 year old live very much in a fantasy world, where alternative language use can be common. This is also the time when they like to pretend (things like playing doctor...). While i would not tell her it is wrong, i would encourage a period of time each day for her that we are just going to use our "real" language and do things like snuggle and read books, draw pictures and tell stories, etc.
