My DD will be 4 years old in August and still cannot pronounce "r" (she says "w") or "th" (she says "v"). As she has only just outgrown a stutter that was really awful for her, I have not been concerned with anything other than fluency until now, but she is due to start pre-school soon and my previous worries that she would be picked on for her stutter have changed to worries that she will be picked on for saying "wiv" and "weally".
Should I be considering getting some speech therapy or at least an assessment?
