Author
Barbara Braddock
Summary
In this online article, speech-language pathologist Dr. Barbara Braddock discusses whether or not speech-generating devices prevent speech-delayed children from developing natural spoken language. Results from studies indicate that these devices help children rather than hinder them during their speech development.
