[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Don't use ABA for speech. It is not meant for that. [/quote] +1. It's not really for things like working memory either. It sounds like some providers believe this it's autism and others don't. ABA is often recommended for autism, but not every autistic responds well to it, and it requires many hours a week, which can negatively impact kids and families. I concur with PP who suggested you need a comprehensive assessment to get a diagnosis and detailed recommendation for areas of need. Sounds like OP needs a developmental pediatrician. [/quote] I am PP who suggested full assessment. IMO, a developmental pediatrician really cannot assess speech and language issues in depth and you should get full assessment anyway. [/quote] I agree that she should go to an SLP for speech issues, but it seems like there is more than just a speech problem going on, so she might need other evaluations as well.[/quote]
