Common Questions and Answers about Speech disorder reading
speech
By the way, both our son and granddaughter learned how to manage their stuttering behaviour - experts claim the best way to handle this is to totally ignore it and not draw any attention to the speech efforts. You might wish to read more about this issue on the internet by googling "stuttering and children" or similar words/phrases in order to educate yourself.
Look up sensory integration disorder and how it effects speech. My son has sensory integration disorder and speech is affected.
How does your child do with fine motor skills by the way?
Very often processing disorders are the culprit for what you describe. In the area of motor planning and one other area-------- auditory processing. Some kids hear all things at the same volume------- child breathing next to them, mower outside, mother's voice asking a question.
My son is 34 months and recently started speech. He says a lot of words and a few phrases "shoes . . wew are you?" but seems to be behind. At his first speech session I asked the speech therapist if she noticed any signs or symptoms beyond speech. She mentioned his hand movements when he gets excited remind her of her autistic clients. She stated that she cannot make any diagnosis regarding autism and after more sessions she can refer him to a specialist if necessary.
with in these 9 months he learned like hunderds of words and spelling,phonics. and also he started reading himself kindergarten books.he knows his colours,shapes,alphabets,counting,and he is learining additions himself by lookin g at the chart.
but he is not sitting still in the school in circle time,sometimes not listing to teacher,would not finish the task fully,when teacher calls his name he is not paying attention,less eye contact in the school and in the home.
But the more pragmatic areas of speech (organizing thought to say what you want to say ---- expressive and taking in what someone else has said to you-------- receptive) can also be affected by motor planning. An occupational therapist evaluates for sensory integration disorder. But speech and social skills can be affected by this (and it is not autism but a nervous system issue).
So, please talk to your physician and I'd start with a speech eval.
When my child was first assessed by Speech/Language professional she told me straight away that with that kind of speech problem it is usually autistic spectrum disorder eg. not understanding pronouns (I, me, you, she, he, his, hers, they, them etc); difference in receptive/expressive language (expressive language at age 7, receptive at age 3) and echolalia.
I started to think and act in a desperate manner. I developed symptoms like, a faster speech and reading speed, whole body shaking, and difficulty performing simple mathematical operations, difficulty pronouncing and spelling some words as well as muscular pain in my calf. Shortly, all the symptoms I mentioned diminished except for the reading problem, muscular pain and speech difficulty which is noticeable when I speak loudly or angrily.
My 4 year old granddaughter has obvious speech problems. It is very hard to understand her. Her speech patterns have also changed. She used to call her mother "Mama-ee" and now she calls her "Mahee". She cannot pronounce her own name, Meaghan. I want my daughter to get her a hearing test and she says she does not think she has a hearing problem.
You have what is called an "expressive disorder". It may be what is called apraxia. Needless to say you require an immediate dye contrast MRI and a consultation with a facility that has neurologists available to review your disorder. A teaching hospital is a good place to find this expertise.
Yes, something is wrong.
It may be serious and it may not be. Sometimes these problems are due to destruction of impingement on a specific area of the brain by a tumor.
Hi Rayyu. I am not a specialist but parent of a child with mild ASD in question - possibility of a mood disorder/ADHD combination. My son makes good eye-contact, communicates failry well, follows instructions very well, friendly with everybody in general, akward with peers, lot better with older and younger children. Most think he is "shy".
He has not been diagnosed, although they think he has something which is in the spectrum of autism disorder. But does have a speech and language disorder. He ahs the understanding of a 2.5year old! Its very frustrating, he finds it very difficult to understand what im sayin. Its the same for me when i try to understand what he's trying to say. He's slowly getting better since he started school last september.
I was also doing some reading on disorganized thinking because I have so much trouble with confusion during mania. I was reading that disorganized speech is a big part of disorganized thinking, which in turn is a form a psychosis. Disorganized speech comes in many forms, such as echolalia and "word salad" and so on. It seems there are a lot of types. I do believe the repetitive speech to thought might be among them.
My son was saying 20 words by the age of 18 months and by 2 1/2 had over a hundred words, however they were nearly all labels, he found it very difficult (and still does to a certain extent) to structure sentances, ask questions etc etc. By 3 years old he was quite echolaic, confused me, you, your etc rearely used the word no and never said yes in response to a question.
My son is 4 and a half years old. He has delayed speech. His sentences are one to three words. His doctor had always said he was perfect. Everything else has developed normally and on time. At age 4, his doctor felt that maybe he fell on the spectrum of Autism because of delayed speech and his behavior. I took him to see a speech pathologist. She said he had receptive/expressive disorder. I took him to a neurologist, and after 15 minutes of observation, he decided that it is Autism.
So far his diagnoses are speech delay and sound speech disorder which by the way runs strong on his fathers side, OCD Disruptive Behavior Disorder NOS, he has sensory processing problems transitioning problems and possible ADD, oh and he has tics.. Actually also he has been recently diagnosed with Celiac disease and Hshimotos thyroid disease and I hear autoimmune diseases are linked to Autism..
It sounds like she may have either a developmental issue such as sensory integration disorder OR a learning disorder/processing disorder. My son has sensory integration disorder. He has trouble with regulation and can throw a fit easily (or used to when he was younger, he's got a better handle on control now), he had trouble with new physical movements, articulation in speech, processing various things, social skills issues. BUT, a super high IQ.
He also uses delayed echolalia in his speech. And he has Semantic Pragmatic Speech Disorder. So his speech development is typically autistic.
However my son is very affectionate. It is not true that those on the autistic spectrum are unaffectionate. Some don't know how to show affection, others do. My son hugs me and tells me he loves me.
Look at the diagnostic criteria, and if you still have concerns I would ask for a referal.
Check Myesthenia Gravis forum and get some information about it. Those are both symptoms of that disorder, but maybe you can find out more about it. I hope that you are feeling better. Good luck!
Consult specialist for better result & good condition for your lovely son. Below information may be helpful to u.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD, is one of the most common mental disorders that develop in children. Children with ADHD have impaired functioning in multiple settings, including home, school, and in relationships with peers. If untreated, the disorder can have long-term adverse effects into adolescence and adulthood.
