Genetic Link to Apraxia? Anyone with 2 affected children in family?

[Guest guest]

My son (4 yrs) has apraxia. My daughter (2 years) does not. Next

month I will deliver twin boys and I am wondering how likely they are

to have apraxia. Does anyone have 2 or more children in their family

(or extended family) with apraxia?

Another mother of an apraxic child told me researchers thought it was

genetic and also tied to Attention deficit disorder. Are there any

families with apraxia and ADD in the same family?

My husband's cousin's daughter has also been diagnoised with apraxia

which seems like it might point to be genetic.

I have seen my son struggle and I hope my twin boys will be spared

the same long journey in learning how to speak. But I've never heard

of anyone having 2 apraxic children so I wonder if I am worrying over

nothing.

Anyways, any comments would be appreciated! Thanks!
