[quote=Anonymous]My daughter will be 18 months next week and I know I need to call to make an ITC referral for her because she only has one word that she uses constantly (CAT but only says the T sound) and receptive is a question mark- she will follow a direction correctly one time then the next day give me a blank stare with the same direction. However, my understanding is that the speech therapy now is done over the computer and therefore I really think it would be a waste of time and money for someone her age. I keep hoping one day she will just talk and we can skip it altogether but no luck so far. My older son was also speech delayed. He had NO words at the same age, but I feel his receptive was better than my daughter- he understood everything. We started the in home ITC speech therapy (pre-covid) at 18.5 months old. He picked it up after the first month and graduated out of the program with 50 words/2 word sentences before 23 months. [/quote]
