That's a good point, passthepotatoes. I don't know if she is considering a second opinion. Couldn't hurt, right?

I should clarify, that I spend quite a bit of time with her ds6 and I was quite surprised the doctor's recommendations included speech therapy. He is a very verbal kid - speaks clearly - and has a large vocabulary. But I guess the doctor thought a speech therapist could help him learn to express his feelings better. Has anyone else heard of a speech therapist being recommended for this?
