Extractions: Developmental Delay Developmental delay comes in various degrees of severity and is a common cause of parental worry. Far too often parents are told, "He will out grow it", "He is just a little immature" or "He'll catch up. Just give him a lot of love". Parents know in their hearts that it is not right and that the problem is real. Developmental delay can have many causes but one of the most common is a slowly developing nervous system. There are many reasons that explain a slowly developing nervous system including disease or even various types of brain injury. However, it is important to realize that if the delay of the nervous system occurs early in life it usually impedes the rate of development. This means the gap between such a child and his or her chronological peers will widen with age. For this reason, parents need to act early to provide appropriate programs for their child that can help minimize this gap. Older children with developmental delay usually have additional problems. They are often the product of a system that is quick to give up. They are exposed to limits placed on them that then become the reality even though there was no bases for these limits other than the fact that no one knew what to do. They can become stagnant, unmotivated, or suffer from a poor quality of life below their potential. The important thing to remember is that they can be helped. Their situation is not hopeless and parents can become empowered and enabled to offer effective productive help that can contribute significantly to the quality of life of the delayed child. This means not only the quality of the child's life but as a result, the quality of life for all the family members as well. The CNR has garnered a great deal of experience working with thousands of developmentally delayed children and their families since 1965. It is our belief that through organized stimulation programs, you can

It's free! Save it. Toe walking in children may be associated with spastic cerebral palsy, spinal injury, myopathy, neuropathy, autism and pervasive developmental disorder. In some children, no cause is identified, and these children are said to have idiopathic toe walking. Previous studies found a correlation between idiopathic toe walking and learning problems and language impairment. Shulman and associates studied 13 children referred for idiopathic toe walking to assess language development, gross and fine motor skills, visuomotor development, sensory integration function and behavior problems.

http://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/autism/actearly/screening.html

Extractions: Skills such as taking a first step, smiling for the first time, and waving "bye bye" are called developmental milestones. Children reach milestones in playing, learning, speaking, behaving, and moving (crawling, walking, etc.). A developmental delay is when your child does not reach these milestones at the same time as other children the same age. If your child is not developing properly, there are things you can do that may help. Most of the time, a developmental problem is not something your child will "grow out of" on his or her own. But with help, your child could reach his or her full potential!

Click here to contact the National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities Child Development and Public Health The early years of a child's life are crucial for cognitive, social and emotional development. Therefore, it is important that we take every step necessary to ensure that children grow up in environments where their social, emotional and educational needs are met. Cost to society of less than optimal development are enormous and far-reaching. Children who grow up in environments where their developmental needs are not met are at an increased risk for compromised health and safety, and learning and developmental delays. Failure to invest time and resources during childrens early years may have long term effects on the foster care, health care, and education systems. Therefore, it is in the public's interest to ensure that children develop in safe, loving, and secure environments.

http://www.hon.ch/News/HSN/515271.html

Extractions: HealthDay Reporter TUESDAY, Sept. 30 (HealthDayNews) A new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique may be able to pick up abnormalities in the brains of children with developmental delays that no other imaging technique has been able to find before. In the October issue of Radiology , researchers explain how diffusion-tensor MRI shows differences in the brains of developmentally delayed children compared to children who are developing normally. "Diffusion-tensor MRI gives you microscopic detail of the brain," says study author Dr. Christopher Fillipi, who was an assistant professor of neuroradiology at New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York City at the time of the study. "Fiber tracts connect one part of the brain to another. So, we looked to see if the fiber tract quantitative values were normal [in children with development delays]," Fillipi adds. "The values in these children were abnormal and not just in the area expected, but throughout the brain."
