You learned about "Baby Sign Language." You learned that it is not an actual language,
per se, but that it is a series of adapted signs taught to infants to help them communicate
basic needs and wants to those around them at an earlier point of development than those
who only use oral language. There are varying opinions about this concept, but most
parents will use the signs in tandem with verbal repetition. Since studies have shown that
most babies who are exposed to this method of language development begin to
understand and use signs a few months before they are able to harness verbal words, what
do you think the pros and cons are of parents choosing this for their children?
