What advise (based on research) would you offer a new parent about their child's language development?

Language development depends on parents interactions with their children. Parents use of parentees, an exaggerated, slower pace speech helps children develop an acoustical map of their native language.

Language development follows a predictable sequence, the rate at which children acquire language varies tremendously. Gender, socioeconomic level, and cultural influences all can affect the rate of language acquisition. A child's language learning can also be impeded by illnesses, such as otitis media, and by a variety of congenital problems of a physical and/or neurological nature. Parents and caregivers are cautioned to seek a medical diagnosis if language development is significantly delayed, as early identification and treatment can often avoid irreparable disruption of the language acquisition process.
