Learning Speech Therapy

Howard Said:

How to help my step son who needs speech therapy to think for himself?

We Answered:

Have you had his hearing checked??? Maybe he's just not ready yet. He doesn't necessarily NEED to be reading yet, all children develop at different rates. Just support him and let him blossom at his own pace. If he's asking for what you deem "the simplest stuff" maybe to him it's not the "simplest stuff."

Ethel Said:

Can i teach myself speech therapy?

We Answered:

If you could, wouldn't you have done it already?

Kim Said:

we are told my 5 year old needs speech therapy and has a learning disability.?

We Answered:

Then get her some speech therapy. At the very least, get her properly assessed. It's best done early.

What's the problem? Speech therapy isn't an unpleasant medical procedure. It's half an hour every so often with a nice lady who plays games with your kid and gives them lots of praise and 100% attention. And what's having it going to label your kid as? Someone who speaks funny? She does that every time she opens her mouth. Stop seeing this as some sort of badge of shame and take it as an opportunity to help her fell better about herself.
