[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I will say is, this might make it tricky when your pediatrician asks about your son’s language at your next visit. I had to see a speech therapist for my daughter at 4 years bc my daughter had some odd speech patterns that she did just to be funny (making up nonsense words, speaking too fast, etc). So, when the pediatrician asked “can other people understand your child?” I had to honestly answer no because my daughter was always joking around when speaking to adults. We went to the speech appt and she was totally fine and even somewhat advanced on the evaluation. That experience convinced me that it’s part of my responsibility to make sure my kids know it’s important to speak clearly so people can understand you.[/quote] No. It’s your job to answer the Ped’s question accurately. Adults could understand her when she wanted to be understood. [/quote]
