My child who is in grade 1 and is 5 and a half years old has difficulty in pronouncing words beginning with 'R' sound. He gets really conscious while speaking those words and starts stammering and loses confidence immediately due to which sometimes he doesn't even complete his sentence . His teacher also complains that he doesn't answer during online classes. How can this be corrected? Please suggest some do's and don'ts so that he feels confident and is also able to speak properly.

🙏My baby son is 2. 5 months old. He is having normal body weight but having lean figure. But the problem is that, he is facing speech delay. Only sometimes says the numbers 123 and abcds learnt from mobiles nursery videos in indistinct manner. In a very few occasions only utters papa and mama in his own way. Most of the times shows fidgety nature and only want to roam out with rickshaws. Utters many sounds... is it a sign of ASD/ADHD?. We are a bit worried about his lacking in hisdevelopmental milestones. Please advise us, if he needs any medical intervention. Whom to and Where to approach🙏
