CDC Dumbing Down Speech Development Standards
Timothy Birdnow
There have been guidelines for child development that have been in place for a long time. Among these are speech development standards. A child of two years of age was expected to know proper names and speak at least two word sentences.
But now, thanks to the Covid pandemic and the draconian response, the CDC has altered the long-standing standard to cover the fact their mask mandates and social distancing have produced children well below their developmental stage.
From Karen Vaites:
Why make these changes? No doubt to hide the developmental problems associated with the pandemic protocols.
Our children are going to be lagging in their development, and no doubt less intelligent, due to efforts by the CDC and other government agencies.
Children's brains are just another casualty in the governments Covid reset.

From Karen Vaites:
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (@ASHAWeb) is clear that "saying fewer than 50 words" when a child is two years old is a sign of a "language problem."

In latest changes, @CDCgov introduced a 30-month milestone, which didn't exist previously.
For the first time, @CDCgov milestones introduce expectations for number of words spoken: 50. cdc.gov/ncbddd/actearl…
Recall, @ASHAWeb says that 50 words at 2YO is a red flag for delays.

Age 2 has always been a pivotal year in children's speech development.
Many kids make major speech strides between 18-24 months, which is why
Early Intervention services typically start at age 2.
Accordingly, 2YO milestones warrant special focus.

milestones for 2YOs used to have an "Act early" section at the bottom of the page, emphasizing the 2-word phrase expectation.
