Communicating is one of the very essential foundations of life. For children who are on the spectrum, learning to communicate means letting us understand their world better. In this episode of Adapting Together, co-hosts Carmen, Xin Yi, and Kevin engage with Speech and Language Pathologist Emma Lee Yi Fang to discuss the critical role of speech therapists in supporting children with speech developmental delays, particularly those on the autism spectrum. The conversation delves into the emotional journey of parenthood, the significance of early intervention, and the delicate balance between parental expectations and children's capabilities. Emma also shared practical tips and strategies parents and caregivers can adopt, making it possible to support and encourage children in developing their speech and language capabilities even from home.Resources:Emma Lee's LinkedInDevelopmental Milestones ReferencesDirectory for Qualified Professional Speech Therapists
