[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do you have a MERLD child? Because this has not been our experience at all. In my experience, the behaviors can look the same, but what my MERLD child needs and what the SLPs who are focused on autism language disorders were very different. I had to go in often and instruct the SLPs how to do their job, even the allegedly very talented ones. [/quote] I don't have a MERLD or an ASD child. I have a "complicated" child. Treatment is symptomatic no matter what they call it. So I need to learn about a lot of things. This is true for every SN parent I've taught our psychiatrist a few things. His own teachers taught him, "Your patients should know more about their condition than you do." So congratulations (truly) you can teach your SLP what to do. [/quote] [b]If you have to teach your SLP vs. them working with you as a partnership or teaching you, one should terminate with that provider and find another one. [/b]Ours is amazing and listens to our concerns, expresses hers and we all work together. We went through several before finding the right one. Ours is the only one who has seen our child who truly gets him and actually helps.[/quote] PP isn't interested in what the SLP has to say. She knows everything. Everyone else knows nothing, even though they have graduate degrees in the field. She is the nightmare parent that every professional hates to see walk through the door. [/quote]
