Ok, you said he CAN talk, he just chooses not to at your place? I should hope that things will eventually change then, given time. I would definitely be worried if he NEVER talked, at 2 1/2.
Honestly, the crier that I had last year would get a hand-held walk to the room next to us, and I would sit her down in a chair and calmly say "When you are all done crying, you can come and play/eat/watch the video, etc.".
That was it. Very little attention given, she was in a safe space, but it removed her from the situation and showed her that there was no need and it was not going to accomplish anything. Plus, if she was a room away from us, it was at least marginally less irritating to listen to! LoL
I hope it gets better!!!
