This is the one time she does want to come and have a browse on Tattle
you know because she hasn't been on here since God was a lad.
Tattlers have been giving loads of advice from personal experience etc. No negative comments on here about Ronnie and his speech. Only support from what I've seen.
The only negativity I've seen has been from her 'he can speak perfectly well thank you' 'he asked why the man was smoking paper' and 'he sings wheels on the bus'.
Horrible to lie about your own child like she does.
Glad she is reaching out but I hope she takes it on board and this isn't just for engagement.
I do wonder if shoving a phone in his face all the time doesn't help. My SIL used to do this with our nephew all the time. He's 3 now and has very limited speech. But....he's come on leaps and bounds these past few months and coincidently during these past few months she's not been plastering him all over Facebook and Instagram. Just a thought. Anyways....routing for Ronnie
not being funny but she really doesn’t do herself any favours.
speech and language therapists go to university for 3 years. They have to be registered with hcpc and you can find who is registered by searching on the register. I work a lot with slts and they are amazing. They do transform kids speech. Why on earth would she not actually google and see what slts do?
honestly she’s on another planet.
i do work closely with speech impairments to, as you all know as a lot of them can end up occurring with the sort of disorders I work with like autism and adhd. But slts really are very undervalued, under appreciated and we are in dire need of more of these people. A lot of the stuff I learned was from the slts I work with, we often cross one another and plan intervention together if there is a condition which requires quite a lot of input from both of our fields.
im embarrassed that she hasn’t spent time researching what slts do to be honest. Would of been an ideal way to mention rcslt and the brilliant work they also do with adults to as they’ve been over run with long covid referrals causing issues with swallowing etc
duck sake, your son clearly is struggling with all areas of his speech, receptive expressive social ! Go and bloody read about it yourself instead of relying on your huns who can barely spell their own name!
also the woeful ignorance of asking for anecdotal advice like every speech impairment or nd condition is the same is just ridiculous.
using autism as a example Stephen shore once said if you’ve met one person with autism you’ve met one person with autism
every diagnosis is different and will need different intervention based on many variable factors.
Furthermore let’s not forget she does not need to rely on nhs slts and can pay for private therapy.
