I get a call from my supervisor that the family is requesting another service provider because he’s not making progress.  We know the “what” and the “why” kids need to work on the skills they do BUT do parents understand the “what” and the “why”???  How can we help parents to understand? When parents do understand, let them figure out how they're going to do it.  Sometimes we focus so much on the “how” first without pausing (to explain, model, discuss, give feedback on) “what” and “why” and then our message gets lost on them.  Listen as I try to make sense of all of this.
 
Check out the resources below for parents.  Teach them the "what" and the "why" let them figure out the "how."  Stay tuned for more resources in the series "I want my child to talk."
