 I am a terrible mother. I got my son hooked on the tablet and phone pretty much since he was a baby. And now that he is 3.5 years old, I think I am seeing the negative repercussions of my poor parenting. My son doesn't recognize his name, when I call him he doesn't look at me. He has speech delays, he cannot string phrases together yet. When I ask him "Do you want milk?", instead of saying "yes" or "no", he just repeats the question back, "Do you want milk?". It really bothers me. Some say children just progress at their own pace and it's tempting to just deny that there is a problem, but my gut is saying that there might be some underlying cause here.
