Frequently Asked Questions — Skokie Families

Will my Skokie child catch up on their own?

Some "late talkers" do catch up without intervention — but research suggests that waiting beyond age 3 with significant delays often leads to longer-term struggles. We're conservative about recommending therapy when it's truly not needed and clear about recommending it when it is.

My Skokie child is bilingual. Is that affecting their speech?

Being bilingual doesn't cause speech or language delay. However, a bilingual evaluation requires specific approaches to differentiate between language difference and language disorder. Our SLPs can guide you through this and recommend specialists if needed.
