She's almost 29 months old and barely talking...

[Kathy]

My daughter, Aleda. Has anyone else had a child that was delayed in their speech? She's had her hearing checked, it's fine. She's been evaluated as far as autism, developmental disabilites, etc., that's also fine. She's just not doing much talking at all. She's just now finally starting to say a few words after having been getting speech therapy for around 4 months now. They say she's lazy and just doesn't feel compelled to speak. She's also not exposed to other kids much because my ex watches her while I work (he's permanently disabled) and she's my one and only. He has another daughter that's 16, but she lives with her mom. I guess maybe we've anticipated her needs too much so she's going to talk when she's good and ready! LOL!!

So...just wondering if anyone else has had this problem? Tell me about it...
