The second, 4 years younger, never developed her own language. Both grandkids spoke early - my grandson at age 17 months speaks in 4-5 word sentences. We always encouraged speech in the kids and grandkids. I’ve only had girls – the oldest had an entire language that we had to decipher, and ended up being a communications major.

Plus, people don't realize that we have to pay for this and that insurance often doesn't cover it. We’ll age out before they kick us out. :) It’s frustrating.

Also, my son who had the speech therapy wasn't interested in watching tv until the past few months, so blaming "too much tv" wouldn't have been an option for us. We were instructed to watch tv too and one that comes to mind were the dvds called Baby Babble. (I am not sure how old your son is so it might be too young for him.) Our doctors were also dismissive when I brought it up and we had to seek out the help on our own. We completed the therapy 8 months ago because the county said that his speech was normal no longer qualified. However this week his teacher brought up a concern with speech...hmmm.
