[QUOTE="2ofakind, post: 255414, member: 7020"] We went throught Early Intervention program when he did not talk at 2.5 yrs. He had the gamut of tests, and at the time we were told he just had the speech delays. He had speech therapy throught the Easter Seals by us, but I cancelled that since all they wanted to do was play with the toys and not help him learn. We got an in home speech therapist and that went much better. When he aged out of EI, he was put into the Early Childhood program through our school district. He was 3. He still received speech and Occupational Therapist (OT) as well. He is in a regular kindergarden and I think part of the problem is there are 31 kids in his class. He is used to 6 or 7. He is not getting the attention that he did in the preschool. Also, since his little brother is PDDNOS annd gets a little more attention at home due to the fact that he is not potty trained and does not talk well, he is not getting as much at home. Maybe I'm grasping at straws. I did make an appointment with a neuropsychologist that came highly reccommended through Early Intervention, but it will be 2 weeks before we can be seen. In the meantime, I am trying not to make a big deal out of this. I could use some quick fix suggestions. At this point-I'll try anything!! Thanks for letting me vent. I do feel better. [/QUOTE]
