Avatar m tn Then there is the mechanical part of communicating our language and that is speech. Problems with speech can include just trying to get the words out, pronouncing the words, the tonal quality of our speech, using emphasis and inflection. Problems with speech can be from weakness or spasticity of the muscles of our mouths, throats and vocal cords. Or it can be with the way our brain tries to direct the speech.
Avatar f tn Hes now 18 months but doesnt say alot of words. He talks up a storm but its not words. My dr wants him to go to speech therapy. Has anyone else experienced this? Im just trying to figure out if hes behind because he was early and hasnt fully caught up yet.
Avatar f tn Many assume that language issues are associated with autism and they can be------- but speech issues are quite common with sensory kids and speech delays exist on their own. Social skills did not come naturally to my child. We have worked very hard teaching them to him. We did a "social skills camp" last summer. Very helpful.
Avatar m tn We have a' speech and language 'disorder forum on Med help , they may have ideas, we also have the expert/doctor forums on the right of the forums page ..I will take a look in the search engine and let you know ...
Avatar m tn From reading up online that I've been doing, it looks like it could be another learning disability too, like a speech-language disorder. For example: "Receptive Language Disorders - Receptive Language Disabilities: People with receptive language disorder may have difficulty understanding spoken language, responding appropriately, or both. This leads to substantial difficulty communicating.

Avatar m tn Yes, the school did assess his language and this is all he qualified for. His speech teacher sent home his progress report and said that he is progressing very well, which he is. Maybe I am just expecting things too fast because he does get better everyday. He says new things all the time that I never taught him to say so he is catching on to language that has not been taught to him. My son is about 1 year behind also and I am told by his doctor and teachers all of is due to his ears.
Avatar m tn And the importance of pushing for things now is that it is much harder, once they are in a mainstream school, to get them placed in a school that has experience/expertise in speech language problems or other associated conditions.
Avatar f tn d expect, I would consider having his speech/language evaluated. Language skills are central to success in academics, so if he really is behind it is best to get him in a good intervention program before school age. In the US, you can talk to your local public school district for assessment and treatment options. Good luck!
Avatar m tn As he is lacking language skills you may also find help on our New "Speech and Language Disorder Forum, there may be others there with ideas for you,Get him taking a good muliple Vitamin-mineral supplemnt with B Complex and Vit C, and some parents swear by fish oil, how is he at school , , focus on the positive side of his behavior, and give him plenty of attention,make sure he gets as much as the other children, does he do a sport and outside activities, this could help him.
Avatar n tn Dear Doctor, I am a student from a suburban area of India and my group is tying to spread awareness among the people out here with regards to different development problem associated wiith kids of around age group 2 to 7. Many mental problems related to a child like autism, down syndrome, speech problem etc is our concerened area.
325405 tn?1262290178 Although the main issue or area that you would like to have addressed is Speech Language Pathology, the IEP should contain information on your child's interests (eg: music is a great teaching tool), art, dance (whatever) so they can incorporate it into the plan as a strategy. Also what behavioral issues arise during frustration or overstimulation? What will be the strategy to deal with those issues?
Avatar f tn It is hard to check hearing at that age because it assumes cooperation which lets face it most three year olds can sit for a hearing test, I would follow up with the pediatrician and the audiologist, the pediatriacian can give you a referal for a speech language assessment and they can help you determine it language is a problem or not.
Avatar n tn Indeed the higher the cognitive level of the child the more appropriate it is and in some circumstances it can fool professionals into thinking that they have advanced verbal skills. An experienced Speech and Language Therapist who has experience of autistic spectrum disorders as well as speech impairments should be able to assess his speech and communication and social interaction skills. Out of interest, also google Semantic Pragmatic Speech Disorder to see if that is relevant.
6965936 tn?1394227011 They used baby sign language to help my daughter she was delayed in speech and would get so frustrated because she couldn't tell us what she wanted. But then we found out she has anxiety that causes selective mutism so they went a different route instead of the sign language.
293420 tn?1243142938 I think it would be great to have a Speech/Language Impaired forum. There are TONS of parents who post about their toddlers/children having speech and language issues, but they have to post on Parenting Toddlers 1-5. It would be great to have all of the posts in one place and be able to track one another's progress with their children and hear stories from other parents about their S/L impaired children. I'm an SLP and I would LOVE to have a forum for this.
Avatar m tn A consultation with a certified speech-language pathologist who specializes in voice therapy is recommended. They will recommend various techniques to assist you and provide relief to your situation.
635457 tn?1223222111 My 3 yr. old daughter was diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder at 24 mo. when I took her to our county board of developmental disabilities for speech therapy. I've read that there is a connection between SPD and autism and I've read that there is no connection between SPD and autism. What are all of your opinions? Thanks for taking the time to answer.
543250 tn?1214743177 I forgot to say, yes Semantic/Pragmatic Disorder is typical of being on the spectrum and is one of the Disorders that a good Speech and Language Therapist will tell you that you are looking at a probable diagnosis of autism.
16666184 tn?1450255078 t possibly be there, lack of taste. Language and speech becoming increasingly difficult and needs more pauses and corrections. Significant weight loss 60+ pounds in 4mos. Shutting in. I'm being eaten piece by piece. Mind. Body. Soul. And no one can tell me what it is. I don't know what's worse, knowing something is wrong or knowing you might never know what ate you piece by piece.
Avatar m tn Your son is showing some delay in the area of speech/language, and this may be in the context of generally sound development overall. If the pace of his speech/language does not pick up some momentum over the next several months it would be prudent to arrange an evaluation with a Speech/Language pathologist and/or arrange an Earli Intervention evaluation.
Avatar m tn If not, I would definitely start there, by contacting a speech-language pathologist (the local school district is a great place to start, they provide services as early as age 3). They will definitely want to start with a hearing screening, and then evaluate his speech, language, and social skills. It could simply be a speech/language issue. If his delay is significant, early intervention is vital for him to catch up to peers by the time he needs to start learning to read and write.
