Just like I thought, my 22 ds has a speech delayed, I had the people with ei at home on Friday and they said he has a delay in 3 or the 6 areas he was evaluated. So now that we can forward with the program I have to bring my dh on board who since the beginning was oblivious to the fact that our ds didn't speak, didn't want him evaluated, etc. He doesn't even know that our ds was evaluated, because he resisted so much I went and arranged for it on my own. Any suggestions?

That no one needs to know (Do Not tell anyone, no shame, just grist for gossip tmi mill) and that it will better prepare him for pre-school.

you could tell him that your dr set it up/arranged it and then give him the report. tell him it is better to address these now.
[ Reply | Options ]Many kids (especially boys) don't talk before 2. Why did you have him evaluated when he's still so young? I'm with your DH on this one.
[ Reply | Options ]probably shouldn't have done it without his ok. but i think you need to tell him that it's a question of helping your son. basically like this: you can stand on principle and say "there's nothing wrong with my child, he doesn't need any help" or you can say "my child does need help and it's my obligation as a parent to make sure they get the help they need". and that you are going to go with the latter.
