Why are speech services so critically important to children?

“We all have frustrating moments when our message isn’t understood, or we have difficulty comprehending someone else’s message. For children with speech and language impairments, these communication breakdowns can happen several times a day. The breakdowns can affect speaking, listening, reading and writing. They can be frustrating, embarrassing and defeating for the student. Speech and language services are designed to address the roots of these breakdowns and help with both academic success and self-esteem.”
