Dear Nlers,
My 5 year old daughter does not speak clearly and i dont know what to do. I checked her tongue and its ok. I always try to correct her but it seems there has been no changes.
I need advise from speech or behavioral therapists and parents who has experienced same.

my first son was like that. he would say pish instead of fish. didn't even realities when it stopped. if really bad then take him/HER to a general hospital maybe they can refer you somewhere elsewhere
