title: A follow-up study of seven siblings with unusual sound preferences.
abstract: This is a follow-up descriptive study of seven siblings, ranging in age from 6 to 14 years who had never attended school or received speech therapy until these ages. Five of the seven siblings, along with their parents, and paternal grandmother were located in the Spring of 1997. All siblings have achieved normal weight and stature. They also achieved intelligible speech with no idiosyncratic sound patterns.
