Guest guest Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 There is NO TRUTH behind this claim. I'm sure it is more difficult to gain language after a certain age, but to say 'never' is just a sign of an SLP who is giving up. I'm sure there are many parents who will tell you their story of language recovery after age 5... or those who are in the process of gaining language in an older child. Chelate.
