[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but it didn't start getting better starting till 5. By 7, much better. Child is doing great.  Lots of speech therapy, good preschools, activities, patience and love.[/quote]

So glad DC is doing great now. Did kiddo have a dx? Any therapies you recommend? [/quote]

We did a lot of private speech therapy and U of MD LEAP then a small private from k-2nd. My child would've been lost in public early on and would not have been able to do the curriculum as its mainly oral and we needed oral and visual.   Language disorder.  For us, I have no idea if the speech therapy helped.  I saw ST as giving my child the tools to talk when they were ready but you cannot for a child to talk.  For us, some of it was just time.  Strong academics helped too.  I had an early reader who loves learning so that made things easier. We also did things like swim and gymnastics at that age. Worked a lot at home on things like writing (but that didn't come till about age 5).  A lot of our kids struggle greatly at that age and are doing great years later. [/quote]
