Language, speech and communication


 For parents, caregivers, health care providers, and teachers, concerns and questions often arise regarding the care and well-being of individuals with Marshall-Smith syndrome. 

Learning to speak is not possible for many children with MSS. But they can learn to communicate with their environment in other ways. For example, by making eye contact and showing facial expressions. You can also pick up something, point to it or make a gesture. By encouraging the child when things are going well, making contact will increasingly come from both sides.
