[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he hasn't outgrown it by 10, he probably needs some extra help. If he were mine, I'd get him speech therapy now. [/quote] +1 The speech therapist will give him homework to practice and there are apps you can get as well. We have friends whose son is in his early teens now and still has major speech issues. We only see them when we're visiting their state every couple of years and we are always startled when we see him that he is still so difficult to understand. I don't know if they just don't hear it because they're so used to it but I can't imagine it isn't affecting him at school. He seems like a confident kid--very smart and quirky. But it won't be good if he goes to a job interview and is still speaking that way. [/quote]
