Offended on behalf of MASTER Yoda, read a book. He talks the way he does because he is so old that language structure has changed since he grew up

While I do have some regular difficulties/delays in speaking, being outright nonverbal isn’t frequent for me, mine is more a response to being overstimulated. I’m honestly stoked to hear that Max has parents that are willing to be educated and understand him. That’s so important. Good on you both.💖
