How much repeating is normal for an 18 month old? I have a dcg who repeats in a very monotone robotic voice and I feel like it’s not normal development. She doesn’t answer questions simply repeats what you say. She will sometimes give a grunt for yes but that’s about it. I know not being able to answer can be normal but I feel that she should be able to say yes or no to simple questions, especially at meal times. She has a large vocabulary but mainly uses it to name objects rather than real communication.

She is meeting her milestones but her behavior is very peculiar. Any thoughts?
