For an example if you use baby language while talking to child, the child will probably has problem of speech defect. Most of parent do this fault because they think that  baby language is so cute. But this is big handicap for child’s language development because child simulates the people around him/her.

Do not forget communication with child starts  when s/he was in his/her mother’s belly. In the beginning s/he does not understand what you are talking about but this will cause him/her to early understanding. Early talking with baby develops her/his language skills.
