End result - it took him longer to get words out sometimes because his mouth wouldn't listen to his brain. There were some people who talked to him in that sing songy little kid voice they use for someone who is mentally retarded. He had more than a few blow ups over it by the time we got to high school.

Callum seems to go to the extreme with Sam, beyond what he needs to understand, and it feels very patronizing to watch.

Totally Indy, he over exaggerates his words with everyone but he goes overboard with Sam.
