[quote=Anonymous]My DC did speech therapy for about a year and it was a lifesaver. We paid out of pocket and it was about 150/session. The therapist helped with articulation but also diagnosed some nasal issues that our pediatrician had missed. On the other hand, my DS has a classmate who is a rising 5th grader with such a strong lisp that hasn't been treated with speech therapy. B/c her parents didn't believe in the value of ST, she is now heading into the pre-teen years sounding childish and kind of silly. Other kids are starting to tease her and it is a real shame. A few months of ST at the right time would have cleared it up, now it would be much harder. Shortsighted.[/quote]
