developmental delay

assalamualaikum...jom kali ni kte belajar pasal developmental delay=p as a revision from kelas miss lis.....

developmental delay; defined as any significant lag in a child's physical, cognitive, behavioral, emotional, or social development..in comparison with the normal developmental of normal child...
developmental delay may affect the speech,language,fine and gross motor skills,vision,cognitive and/or personal/social skill.
1)language and speech developmental delay in children
it is a most common type of developmental delay. however, it should not be taken lightly, because it always has the tendency to lead into a serious problem as the child cannot express their feeling..
to understand how the speech is formed from the brain, insyaAllah i will try to make another post to explain it alone...(because it is too complex=))
to know more on the normal development of language and speech, you may refer to the website below
http://www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/voice/speechandlanguage.html
-the possible causes to this problem are exposure to more than 1 language, having learning disability,dysarthria(having problem of muscles that control speech production),hearing loss,as well as autism,
2)vision developmental delay in children
until a baby is 6months of age, their vision will normally blurry, but then it should begin to improve.
if this does not occur, it can be said the child to have vision developmental delay.
-possible causes; refractive errors, amblyopia, infantile cataracts, retinopathy of premturity, strabismus...
3)motor skill developmental delay
a problem or delay in the development of fine motor skill(e.g. hold a toy in order to explore the tactile sensation) as well as the gross motor skill(crawling or walking)
normally; "locomotion at 6–8 months involves creeping on all fours, then proceeds to pulling to stand, "cruising" while holding on to an object, walking while holding an adult's hand, and finally walking independently. Older children continue the sequence by walking sideways or backward, galloping, hopping, skipping with one foot and walking with the other, and finally skipping. By middle childhood and adolescence, new motor skills are acquired by instruction or observation rather than in a predictable sequence" retrieved from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_development#Speed_and_pattern_of_development_2
-possible cause; premature born baby(muscles does not develop well before born),lack of stimulation at younger age, hypersensitive sensation,hyper-defensiveness,or excessive need to seek out for sensory input.. and having problem of motor coordination or ataxia, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, myopathy,or spina bifida


ngantok la plak....insyaAllah esok ana sambung yer=p
