Does your 3-4 year old child show signs of developmental delays?

Every child is different. But there are certain developmental norms that help to monitor and prevent a particular disease or critical lag. Unfortunately, according to statistics, there are more and more children with developmental delays. Developmental delay is expressed by the insufficiency of a child's general stock of knowledge, reduced attention and memory functions, immaturity of thinking, rapid fatigue, delayed development of the emotional sphere. Parents may be alarmed by some features of their child at an early age. From the age of 4 delayed development is already clearly diagnosed by specific symptoms.

There are a number of reasons for which a delay in the development of a child is possible:

• Pathology during pregnancy and childbirth (infections, severe toxicosis, fetal hypoxia, trauma during childbirth, threat of pregnancy termination).
• Infections and traumas in the first years of life.
• Chronic diseases (defects of internal organs, genetic syndromes).
• Prolonged restrictions on the normal life activity of a child.
• Prolonged and frequent psychotraumatic situations.
• Pedagogical neglect.

The earlier the developmental problems are detected, the more favorable the prognosis.
