[Specific parent training in alalia. 1: Introduction and presentation of the seminar concept].

Developmental aphasia is the most severe form of speech retardation and needs therapeutic intervention. The young age of these children (< 3 years) makes therapy difficult. A specified speech therapy is not possible at this age. Intensive stimulation of verbal communication by the parents is necessary. Therefore we developed a specialized training program for parents. This preparation is very useful for later therapy and should prevent disturbance of interaction between parents and child. We will present our concept.
