I would think if a child refused to talk in case, that would definitely be a "red flag" for some type of intervention. I remember when my daughter was young, the doctors were pushing for her to get into speech therapy because they didn't think she was talking soon enough but I resisted it, she was just a "late bloomer" and had no problem expressing herself and had a wonderful vocabulary, etc. On the other hand, son had some learning disabilities that just fell a little too short to get "labeled" to get help through the school district so to catch him up we enrolled him in Sylvan for a bit and he got back on the road. I think each child is different and has different needs, yet sometimes they get all lumped together, know what I mean?<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-64299832655429226592011-02-24T19:08:20.911-05:002011-02-24T19:08:20.911-05:00I really enjoyed this post, Mary!

I wish they would because I also know that early intervention, when needed, can pre-empt problems as well.Mom24https://www.blogger.com/profile/00061152728345287775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469509176316025961.post-85158494431615867682011-02-24T13:03:26.104-05:002011-02-24T13:03:26.104-05:00As parents, we are always questioning things, huh?...As parents, we are always questioning things, huh? I took Nator to have her speech tested when she was little. She didn't qualify for therapy, so we enrolled her in a private school for Pre-K, just to have a comparison to make sure she was okay {a possible tiny delay due to having ear infections/wax issues when she was younger}. She's fine. ;)H-Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13223558705981496824noreply@blogger.com
