Guest guest Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Where are you from? You need a speech hearing evaluation and you may be able to get it for free at your local area education area, 2 get a referral from your physician for a local audiologist who enjoys working with kids, an occupational therapist could help your child with any sensory issues. If there is a dissability clinic in your area you could probably get everything done the same place and in the same day. Read the out of sync child, the late talker of course. Medicine is still a process of elimination so a hearing test is probably the first step. The audiologist will get your child to look at different toys and then turn the light on the toys when your child identifies the toy by looking at it. That is part of the test. **************Wondering what's for Dinner Tonight? Get new twists on family favorites at AOL Food.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks all- I will see what options I can find in Chicago. I know my son hears- i know he sees. My question is how does the sounds and sights he sees and hears effect his processing? I am not sure he would sit still long enough for any test. I can't imagine he would sit with head phones on-but I suspect something more that the usual is going with him in this area, I just don't know what. Thanks- Ren > > Where are you from?

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 we used sertoma on roberts rd. in palos hills, il. and they let you go in the booth with him just to hold him and it is such a strange and quick experience they do sit still. -------------- Original message -------------- From: " sendrenee " <sendrenee@...> Thanks all- I will see what options I can find in Chicago.
