Hi Retz. You're talking family therapy (or what amounts to it). You also speak of "a good professional." Do you believe that most garden-variety SLPs in the schools are sufficiently trained and competent to do family therapy — and sometimes difficult family therapy? And even if they were, do they have the time? Furthermore, it's necessary not only to bring parents onside but teachers and even classmates. Given those realities, do you see why informed consumers might be skeptical? — Ed Feuer edfeuer@mts.net
