[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would not hurt but in my experience i waited until my son was a bit older and still not saying his R sounds correctly - and we went to a private speech therapist who got him to articulate well within a couple of months since the public school system will not see kids for articulation issues.In our case, waiting probably shortened how long it took to correct the articulation since he was 7 and could understand and do exactly what the speech therapist was showing him. Also, some kids end up correcting it on their own so our pediatrician said to wait until age 7 to see if it corrects on its own, and that for purely articulation issues, it was fine to wait for speech therapy.[/quote] Public schools will provide free speech services for articulation. I had no trouble getting services for my kid even in the mad post-Covid rush for services. [/quote]
