[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is op. My oldest child has speech disorder, and that’s why I am worried about this youngest one even though she is only 20 months old. Virtual speech therapies are not helpful with her because she is too young to get benefits, and we cannot do in person speech therapies because of covid concern. She does not wear mask.

I am just anxious worrying, but it seems like I cannot find way to do anything about it. My oldest is doing virtual speech therapies through county & insurance, and they both comment that my 20 months old need intervention. She has done a few virtual speech therapies, and she does not respond well, no talking or sound, just whining, looking away or smiling at the screen. [/quote]

PP here with the 19 month old.  I am surprised they are trying to do virtual speech therapy with her directly.  When we have our virtual meetings with our speech pathologist, she coaches us, the parents, on how to encourage speech.  We often do sessions without DD present to focus on us learning the strategies.  We are the ones that implement the strategies.  This is with the Montgomery County Infants and Toddlers program which uses a parent coaching model.[/quote]
