[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have experience with their child having a lisp when they say their S’s? My 5.5yo has one about 75% of the time. She can say words correctly but most of the time I can see that she puts her tongue between her two front teeth a touch. Anyway, took her to see a speech therapist who said she definitely needed therapy ASAP to correct it. However, the mother of a kid in DD’s class happens to be a speech therapist for a school so I casually asked her for her thoughts and she said she can hear the lisp but it’s the kind of thing that could go away with time. When I told her I was advised to start speech right away she said any speech therapist would push you toward services vs waiting to see. So did anyone’s kid have a lisp and outgrow it? Or is it better to be proactive now to correct it?[/quote]
