[quote=Anonymous]She has a slow processing speed and was in speech therapy for many years. She is still, at 13, saying things like, “who beated them in the war” instead of “beat” or “i catched a cold” instead of “caught.” When I tell her that “beated” isn’t a word, she’ll correct herself and say it properly. If I verbally quiz her (i.e. asking her “what’s correct: I buyed it or bought it”) she will always guess correctly...she gets it. But she still messes these words up in conversation all of the time. Isn’t 13 a little old for this? She struggles socially and I don’t want this to further isolate her from her peers, because it makes her sound babyish. Anyone else’s kid with slow processing speed struggle with irregular verbs as a young teen? Or might it be something else? Thanks. [/quote]
