My three year old is speaking complete sentences with correct syntax and grammar. And the ideas that he expresses are mostly sane. The next challenge is getting him to stop talking for a minute or two.
Kids understand language well before they're able to speak it, and so I think he has about two years of backlogged thoughts that he's trying to get out as soon as possible.
My 18mo has come a long way in understanding what we're saying recently, and even communicating back in his own way. My nephew just stayed over for a week and that kid doesn't know his mouth can just be. Constant talking.
