DS2 is 3.6 so still young. He's been under SALT since he was 2 and has been having private SALT weekly for 8 months as well (plus whatever he gets from the NHS). He's made almost no progress.
He'll be going to a nursery in September that specialise in SALT. Everyone is very hopeful that this will help. But in my gut (which has been right every single time) I think he'll make little to no improvement.
I'm starting to think that he just doesn't have the ability to talk properly and it just isn't going to happen. Sorry if this seems really negative but I know him well enough to know I'm being realistic.
So at what point do you say enough is enough, stop the SALT (or at least not see it as the only thing to concentrate on) and look at other ways for him to communicate?
