I am there! I have a 3.5 year old in my care that I've been trying to teach him his own name for 6 months. EVERY DAY we play the same name game at circle, and he still can't say his own name. That's just an indicator of where he's at, there's of course much more.

I've spoken to mom. She's convinced that it's only a language delay. From here the ball is in her court. I've done my part and continue to support him however I can. From here on out it's moms decision and she's not interested in seeking supports yet. What else can you do? It's his parents job to decide. I feel like we can only support in our care, everything beyond our care is not my place.
