Hi i’m new to this. Just wanted to talk about my boy who doesn’t seem interested in speaking. He has been taking therapy for a year now. Speech, occupational and development, 4 times a week. But he just doesn’t want to speak. According to his therapists he doesn’t have any type of autism. His level of “education/learning” (if i can call it that way) was as a 1 year old six months ago. He has learned so many more things with time, so idk what level he is now. He needs an evaluation around this time. He is learning signs. I am a full time mom. So i am talking to him literally 24/7. He pays attention but most of the time he just ignores me. Idk how to get his attention sometimes because whenever i try talking to him face to face he feels like i’m just being annoying so he covers his ears and turns around so he won’t have to listen to me. Or he’ll just end up crying. My bf works and we don’t live together so he doesn’t really understand how my child doesn’t want to speak when he gets a lot of help from the therapies and myself. And it’s something that stresses me out. Because it makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong. Hopefully he’ll start going to a special school for his age with children who have similar difficulties. I hope he realizes he needs to speak in order to make people understand him. I know he’s small and that’s he’ll learn to speak and i wouldn’t want to push him because i don’t want him stressing out. But i know that if don’t he won’t try to speak until later on. It’s 1:34 am in CALI. Can’t sleep because I’m stressing over this situation. via /r/Parenting http://bit.ly/2JxlsM4
