[quote=Anonymous]My DD (14) has a bit of a lisp that we assumed she would outgrow. She also has a tendency to kind of swallow her words. We discussed it with her briefly before that she needs to articulate better, but she blamed it on her braces. Now that the braces are off and the lisp isn't any better we'd like to seek either speech therapy or get her started on some exercises to help but I'm not sure the best way to approach this without ruining her confidence or making her think there's something wrong with her. I really wish we had addressed this earlier before the delicate teen years but here we are. Any suggestions? [/quote]
