sib effects

Dear all,

Thanks to all who replied to my question about the possible effects of a
language-impaired or phonologically delayed/disordered sib on the
development of another.  Here are the references that resulted:

("TEDS") on twin language development (the results of which are not yet
ready to be cited).
