Communication via application or phone ‏‪( Phone number appears when clicking the contact button ) ‬‏ or via page messages My son is three years old and only says "daddy" and "mommy"? 🗣 My son is four years old and his speech is unclear???? 😕 My son is five years old and he speaks, but only I can understand him???? My son used to speak well, but now he stutters???? My son speaks so fast that his speech is incomprehensible????🤦‍ My son hears well, but when I call him, he ignores me and doesn't respond to my words???? My son only repeats one word????? 😓 When someone asks my son "What's your name?", he replies "What's your name?"????🙍🏼‍ What should I do? Who should I go to? Where should I go? #مركزالصعيدى_للفئات_الخاصة Don't worry, all these are language and speech problems. Our first step will be to see a #speech_therapist 😌 So, will he start speech therapy sessions right away? If he tells you that, leave him and find someone else 😠 So, what should he do? The first step to address the problem is to diagnose it. This is the role of observation. He might suspect a hearing issue🦻 and tell you to get a hearing test from an audiologist. He might suspect intellectual abilities, so he'll tell you an IQ test is required🤓 ✍ He conducts a language test to measure receptive and expressive language. ❌ There is no such thing as "your son has autism" without applying autism tests and scales. A psychologist performs these. Diagnosis is made by an integrated team based on the child's problem, not on suspicions and feelings. If he suspects something, he must confirm it through scales and tests. ✅👌🏻 .................. After diagnosis, the plan for developing and implementing the program begins. You must work with the therapist at home to implement the program and ensure its success. You must be a good follower ✅ The program lasts from 3 to 6 months, and the child is evaluated to confirm the results and develop another program to achieve other goals or continue with the first program's goals if not completed 👌 So, I must understand that at least there will be some progress over time, even if it's not significant, but there is progress. 👩‍💻 What if, God forbid, there is no progress at all? This could be due to a diagnostic error, a flawed program (its goals are beyond the child's abilities), the therapist's capability, or you not working effectively with the therapist 🤦‍ Let's review where the flaw is and continue 😐 👌 Finally, never leave your son with a therapist or at a center without any progress or follow-up and say "I did my part." You and the center are one.
