[quote=Anonymous]My kid has apraxia. He started speech therapies & county services since he was 2 when he was nonverbal, once he could speak, progress was a lot faster. Right now at 7, I think he only has some problems with long syllables words or some sounds like "th" and "r". Other than that, he can communicate and talk quite well. He still cannot blow a balloon or do some mouth shape, and that is due to his oral motor. Someone, he manages to make the correct sound by overcoming with his oral motor deficiencies. We started with 2x/week speech therapies when he was nonverbal, and then go to 1x/week speech therapies at 4, and I am thinking to drop it maybe at 8/9. The therapist knows prompt but they don't take BCBS.[/quote]
