Ryan is speaking in larger sentences than most teenagers do. However, his conversation points tend to be a bit on the oversharing side.
Today I asked him how school was and he informed me:
"My teacher changed my poopie diaper"
That's a six word sentence. Sources vary as to hoe many words are typical, but one thing is for sure, a 2 year old speaking 6 letter sentences is not typical. One says "An average 2-year-old's average utterance length is 1.91 words, while most 36-month-olds speak in sentences averaging 3.16 words in length. By age 4, preschoolers speak about 4.5 words per sentence -- just a little below the average sentence length of older children and adults."
While all this is quite amazing, I'm wondering why a kid who speaks like a kindergartener is still making "poopie diapers" in the first place ;)
And, this comment is still much preferable to the even longer sentence he uttered shortly after this one:
"Never gonna 'I love you' ever again"
