Lilah Roloff, from Little People, Big World has been getting a lot of attention from Tori Roloff’s fans. Viewers of the show have watched her grow up, but they have shared some major concerns. Lilah has had some difficulties with her development and fans are curious why she doesn’t talk much. Tori has shared some of her medical problems with fans, but here are a few reasons why Lilah doesn’t talk much.

Lilah Roloff’s Development

As fans have watched Lilah grow, they have noticed that she isn’t growing as fast as Jackson did. She is now three years old and even her walking seems slower than most kids. As Tori has shared her milestones, she has mentioned that Lilah isn’t developing as quickly as her oldest. On the show, we got a chance to see her visiting the doctor. They tested her hearing and it turns out that she had some hearing problems. The doctor said that this could be the main reason that she doesn’t talk much. In fact, Tori explained to her fans, a few months ago, that she “communicates really effectively”, but there are speech delays.

Redditors were quick to share their thoughts on Lilah Roloff’s speech development as well. One of them started a thread about how they thought Lilah should be talking more by now. They were very concerned and asked others if this was normal. One Redditor wrote, “I’ve noticed this and more with Lilah. It just doesn’t seem like she’s… alert, I guess? Hardly talks, often has a blank look on her face, etc.” Another added, “Tori did an Instagram Q&A and someone said they were ‘worried about Lilah’s speech delay’ and she said, ‘Don’t be‘. It seemed like she meant they were addressing it but weren’t going to otherwise discuss it with fans.”

Lilah’s Medical Issues

It appears that Lilal Roloff has more medical issues than her speech. In fact, she may have to have eye surgery to correct her vision. She has a medical condition called Strabismus. This requires that she needs to wear an eye patch on one eye for an extended amount of time. This will help the other eye to do more of the work and become stronger. Fans have also noticed that she has been wearing glasses for a while now, even as a toddler.

Zach Roloff took to Instagram to tell his fans what happened. He explained that they want to wait until she starts talking a little more. The doctors have done more tests on her eyes and the family wants to be sure that surgery is the best route for her vision.

  1. I believe Zack and Tori are doing everything they should be as parents. The kids seem to be very happy and healthy. They have family that they can get opinions from, they don’t need them from the peanut gallery. Keep doing what you are doing Zack and Tori πŸ‘πŸ˜πŸ€—
