My DS2 was evaluated today by a speech therapist and appears to have a phonological processing problem. He can say over 150 words but tends to abbreviate the words to the first syllable and repeats that syllable. He says certain sounds consistently incorrectly like "d sounds like g" or "l like y" and "t like k". He tends to say individual words and very few 2-3 word sentences. He is qualifying for speech therapy but given his age that will only start in a few months.
He also is growing up trilingual at the moment but according to the evaluator that tends to produce sometimes a global delay in communicating rather than this processing issue.
I am wondering if anybody else had similar issues with their children? Did speech therapy help? Do you have any other suggestions/ thoughts?
Thank you very much for your help!
