[quote=Anonymous]Get a private evaluation and speech therapy. Some of the local universities have it low cost or sliding fee scale if money is an issue - U of MD, Georgetown and Loyola of Columbia. Smart and language delay are two different things. Some kids with language issues are extremely smart but they get underestimated due to the language component. Many are very visual and they can decode reading on their own with basic exposure because they can understand through their eyes vs. hearing or speaking. Most early intervention services are pretty poor. If he is a year behind he should qualify for services. Try U of MD first - they have a preschool and clinic that are both very good.[/quote]
