So my ~3.5 just started preschool and loves it. Similar to how I was at his age, he’s always excited to go and never anxious. He’s having a blast, although within 3 days already brought a cold home that kicked my ass. So it begins…

But the vent here comes with his speech. My wife and I are very good with him, read and correct his way of talking all the time but it almost feels like he’s purposely stunting his own speech growth. For example instead of using ‘I’ hell just say ‘me’ even though we always try to correct him and make him say the correct sentence.

Or like this morning he’s playing with his toys and grabs his ‘ment chuck. I said no, and make him say ‘cement’ and ‘truck’ properly. Then when I ask what it is he firmly says ‘ment chuck. But it’s clear he’s falling behind his other preschool kids as they talk like adults and not babies.

They’ve ordered a hearing test but I doubt it since he’s had them in the past and done very well, and he can hear the quietest of things around the house it’s crazy
