"Duoduo has been nonverbal since she was born, but it's not that she completely doesn't want to speak. She is conscious. There was a time when she called out to me, as well as Duoduo's dad, but the occurrences are very rare," Jiang Xiaorou said.
Jiang Xiaorou was earnestly communicating with the teacher, who seemed quite exceptional and understood child psychology very well.
"What circumstances led Duoduo to speak, and does she still call out to you now after she has spoken?" the teacher asked.
"It seems to slip out when she's stimulated, but then she hasn't spoken again," Jiang Xiaorou said.
The teacher seemed to understand.
"Don't worry, Duoduo's mom. I've seen many cases like Duoduo's self-withdrawal before. Children with psychological issues need time to recover. Leave Duoduo in my care, and I'll help her regain her confidence gradually," the teacher said.
Is recovery possible?
Jiang Xiaorou was at a loss for words. She took the teacher's hand.
