[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your child is speech delayed, significantly so.  He needs help he is not getting.  Early intervention is critical.

How your DH was raised is irrelevant.

You must do something for your child.  How can you not see that?

I do see that but also do not want to be overly reactionary.  If my expectations are unreasonable, I don't want to push.  The consensus is that, at least with respect to child care, my expectations are more than reasonable and perhaps a little lax.

DH definitely needs to buck up, but I confess to not knowing how to make someone do more than they are willing to do.  I can't make him work, we can't afford daycare, and, as PPs pointed out, I can't micromanage his day with our child, including making him go to therapy.[/quote]

Your county will provide services to your child for speech.  You can set this up regardless of your DH's incompetence.  I believe they will go to your home.

You really cannot NOT do this, it is as critical as any medical issue.[/quote]
