If your son s other domains of development (motor,social ,vision,hearing)are assessed and they are normal,isolated speech delay is not much serious.it can be due to parents having speech delay/familial. Show him to doctor to see if there is any tongue tie..if everything is fine just discourage him from watching t v / video games and encourage him to talk ...he will be fine
