[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do,people wait? What's the harm in an evaluation from an SLP? I really don't understand the wait and see approach when research shows th earlier issues are identified th better the prognosis.[/quote] The kid is 16 months and hasn't reached a milestone for an 18 month old. There's no reason to at this point to have an evaluation b/c an evaluation can't speed up a child's natural development. Having 2 kids with speech delays, I'm not opposed to people seeking early evaluations when there are actually missed milestones. [/quote]
