I do think some of the kids developmental delays can of course be put down to parenting and environment.
The speech delays are one becauseI can’t see them spending much one on one time with a 1/2/3 year old developing their speech because Sue is too busy with the next baby or 2. On top of that could you imagine trying to get a word in, in that house. People constantly screaming over the top of each other, I know we say the little ones are grabby but it just looks like a fight for attention.
we know educationally there is probably very little support, there is no way she can read with 6-7 younger ones every night.
In my opinion and it’s just that from things that have been said and vlogged Tillie would be a massive concern, not necessarily ASD but I do think she would benefit from some further support about how she feels with her leg.
Archie needs some intense speech therapy and could show signs of ASD but equally they could be a fight for attention.
Then there is Max, Oscar & Casper. Max is diagnosed, Oscar is a sweet lad but he talks at 100mph it would be a sign for me to monitor.
Casper again I think is a sweet lad but she does fumble and stutter his words a little, I don’t know if it’s nerves or a genuine
impediment, because he’s lumped in with Max and Oscar his behaviour could be mimicking them rather than an actual concern, either way he seams a very nervous child and I think he would benefit from some one to one parent time and a hobby outside the madhouse.
the rest, I can’t comment. Apart from the granny girls who all need to be taught some manners and would benefit from playing some games where they take turns. Which will be seen in the next vlog.
