[quote=Anonymous]DS will be 5 in November, and started speech therapy late this Spring because he can't say G or K sounds. (Think "ake" instead of "cake.") He's been receiving 2x weekly sessions and the therapist seems very frustrated that he can't contract his tongue properly to make the sound. She has had me chase down a million possible underlying causes at considerable time and expense -- for example, we have an ENT appointment today because she thinks his tonsils might be too big, which the ped actually laughed at but gave me the referral anyway -- but none of them have yielded any cause. She now wants to cut down the sessions to once a week. I feel like she has just given up, as he hasn't made much progress thus far, but I also have no idea what to expect from speech therapy as my older one never needed it. Am I expecting too much too soon? New therapist? Any guidance appreciated! [/quote]
