Prompt Therapy Speech

Susan Said:

help with my little girl?

We Answered:

Have you tried a counselor? My brother is 18months older than I am and has mild CP. He used to go to speech therapy and physical therapy and got to use special balancing balls and other thing I was not able to use. My mom believed she was giving me enough one on one time but she was wrong. Your son is treated in her eyes as special and she is upset and acting out because of it. Finally my mom caught on to the fact that when jon went to OT and PT, I needed to go to an activity. Your little girl doesn't understand it is therapy.As she gets older the behavior will go away and she will turn into an over protective little sister like I was. My mom bought me several learning toys that i took with me when I was stuck going to my brother's therapy. By her books and the educational toys to teach her to use learning as a way of getting energy out. Don't expect her to sit still by activities that help get her energy out. When I was old enough my mom used to buy me those loops so I could sit and make pot holders. Give your daughter an outlet, it works.
