[quote=Anonymous] If this conversation took place as you describe it-I would assume that DIL may be a bit defensive or scared at the possibility of an issue with her ds. I'm the mother of a child who had delayed speech (for us, it was actually related to another dx we eventually got) and while I was proactive in getting intervention, it was still a scary thing (appointments, testing, evaluations...it's a lot). Also as a mom of this dc-people tended to say a LOT of unsolicited 'advice' and stuff. I'm not saying YOU did-but sometimes it was just overwhelming. Since your DS said that the pediatrician is on it and they're seeing them soon, it sounds like they are doing all the things necessary at this time. I would just try to be supportive through it and be supportive of whatever interventions they may end up doing (like speech or whatever).[/quote]
