Myth: AAC will keep a child from talking. Truth: Speech and AAC are not mutually exclusive. All people use multiple forms of communication on a daily basis. We talk, point, wave, and use facial expression & body language. Someone who uses AAC is no different. AAC, speech, pointing, gestures, facial expression and body language co-exist as part of a multimodal communication system.
