[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree to see a developmental pediatrician, and if he hasn't had a thorough speech evaluation (preferably by a private provider, not the county) that would be my next step. [/quote] We did do private speech for a while but it did not seem to help. His private speech therapist said that there is no point in giving a full diagnose as it doesn't change the treatment. He also seems to drool a lot and his lower jaw always hangs open.[/quote] You definitely need an SLP trained in Prompt to address this. This is one of my kid's problems. It happens because of low tone and weak muscles in the mouth area. As for the behavior, sounds like ADHD to me.[/quote]
