speech therapy
Sun, 08/06/2006 - 07:13Topic: Parents & Caregivers
What is involved in speech therapy?I saw a pediatrician who recommended that i take my son for a speech therapy.He is three and can hardly construct a sentence and his single wording one cant actually get what he is saying or what he wants. Sometimes when he cant express himself he slaps somebody especially kids.Has anyone tried this and how effective is it to the child? I'd like to give it atry but first can i get an opinion from someone with the same experience? I'd really appreciate it coz this would prepare me in advance. Thanx
