[quote=Anonymous]Parent with a 14 y.o. with APD and also GTLD. His processing speed is at 50% of his verbal comprehension. The sophisticated stuff does not come out easily because of the processing speed. He also has problems with any language-based schoolwork - stick him in art, PE, music and math and he's fine. He has a long-standing IEP because we got an early diagnosis. He was very much helped by FastForWord at age 11, not to mention speech therapy for five years. But it is not too late for your kid. You just need the right therapist. Carol Kamara in Rockville has evaluated my kid and has given speech-language goals for him as teenager. The school won't pay, but I am planning on getting him back into private therapy shortly. I highly recommend her. [/quote]
