Did she have advice for raising a child with apraxia?

It wasn’t too long ago that Caleb and Maddie’s son Axel was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS). Or, at least, it wasn’t too long ago that Maddie Brown Brush really started opening up about the condition. The condition makes it difficult for a child to make the proper movements necessary when speaking. This, in turn, can make it difficult for a child to learn to speak. The condition can be frustrating for a child because it isn’t that the child doesn’t understand the words. The child just has a hard time getting the words to come out of their mouth correctly.
