Parent coaching transfers speech therapy gains from the clinic to home, where parents do most of the language teaching. Therapists increasingly prefer adult caseloads because pay is better and populations are aging, leaving fewer resources for children with speech delays.
In the place where I got my education, Hong Kong, a lot of speech.
Therapists are opting to do adult cases because you.
Don'T need to walk around. You need to blow bubbles.
The pay is a lot better.
The general population is getting older, not younger, so a lot of resources.
Are put there.
Back when I just started, I was.
Like, what's the point? Your kid listens to me. You see that.
Your child does whatever I tell and.
Says sentences and only uses single.
Words at home, at the.
Clinic, he can do so much. The reason is.
Because you.
Weren'T part of the solution.
You weren't collaborating, and that's why when.
It came to your child, it doesn't.
Translate into real results at home. So parent.
Coaching is the solution? It's a solution.
Because a lot of times when.
We include the parent inside of the training, you.
Get super good results. That's why the.
Parents need to be.
Doing most.
Of the language teaching.
And it doesn't.
Take as much time as you think, okay?
