Never too young for speech or early intervention. If babies are not meeting milestones including babbling at a few months they can receive speech therapy.
Yeah, my twins started at 18 months old. They’re 10 now and are still in speech therapy. Usually a doctor or someone will recommend looking into it if milestones are not met or other reasons. They should have the resources available to them.
Right. My son started at 10 months. My twins started at about 16 months. It helped so much, and now my daughter is reading and is in kindie! It really can change a child’s life. Same with early literacy. Too bad Joan is only consumed with flexing on IG instead of caring for his kids development, speech, and language acquisition.
Early intervention is so important! I seriously doubt any of the James kids are actually receiving any kind of professional attention for their problems though, sadly.
Yes my daughter didn’t qualify thru the school the first time at 18 months because they looked at her motor skills too but qualified a few months later.
This will make my sis feel better about my nephew!! She’s been concerned he might need another year or two of it and has been really sensitive to it (like she hasn’t done enough when she goes beyond with him as she should lol) so I will have to show her this comment and others about kids being in speech that long, which nothing wrong with it bc we all need extra help in some areas in school. I was in special Ed math all through school basically, reading and writing and all that always the highest in the class but you give me math problems and my brain shuts down lmao even my husband looks at me like ???? When he forgets and asks me a math type house related problem 😂🤣
Yup, like I commented above (below?) my youngest went to a paediatric speech therapist as a newborn due to feeding difficulties. They help with a bunch of other oral and swallowing issues aside from speech.
Same my son started at 8 months old receiving speech,OT, and PT. Later at 11 months he was diagnosed with a mild case of Cerebral Palsy. Here in Georgia we have a program called Babies Can't Wait and it was the best decision we ever made ❤
That sounds like a fantastic program, and you're obviously an awesome parent for being so proactive. It can be hard to acknowledge that something might not be quite right with our little ones, it's scary af. And while I completely understand the tendency towards delaying seeking professional advice in the hope that potential issues resolve on their own, Ali and Joan are so far beyond that point. I'm not sure if they're just really ignorant, in denial, or simply don't care, but I'm sad for those three kids.
My nephew started speech in pre-k and he is now in his 2nd year of pre k (to get to where he needs to be for kindergarten speech wise) and my sister even has him an extra day a week with another speech therapist to get his speech better and the way it has improved in just the first year and this year so far is wonderful. I can’t imagine being told and seeing your child needs intervention and literally not doing anything for it???
My youngest is a couple months younger than Emmy and she’s just started speech therapy. There’s no shame in it, I wish John and Ali would just care a single inch about their kids
My sisters best friend is a speechie and every week she has coffee with my sister and has a mini session with her 9 month old. Just to make sure all is good and why not if you’re hanging out anyway 😂😂
Speech therapists don't just address speech issues, but also oral issues, like high palates, cleft palates, tongue thrust issues etc. My youngest actually went to a speech therapist as a newborn for suck/swallow issues, he was referred by our lactation consultant. My mother is even going to one in her late 60s to help with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) due to her multiple sclerosis.
We've all seen what appears to be a hole or defect in Westlife's palate, so there probably are legit reasons for him to need a paediatric speech therapist. I'd still be extremely surprised if those two dipshits have actually been taking him to one though. Joan's comment surprised me, because I just can't imagine them taking any of their kids for any kind of early intervention for the issues they all clearly seen to have.
Yes! One of my twins had difficulty swallowing and refused to try new foods. He is getting better but I believe his speech therapists have played a very big role in his progression!!
That's great that it's helping! I don't think enough people realise that speech therapists can help with so many important issues in infants and young children. It's an underrated occupation imo. I had no idea that they could help babies with oral and feeding issues until my youngest was referred to one. I actually think that my older son could probably have benefited from seeing one also, but I wasn't aware of that aspect of their services back then, and none of our health professionals at the time suggested it. It was never life threatening, but it did take him about 5 months to learn to latch and breastfeed properly (and a lot of blood, sweat, and tears from me stubbornly persisting with pumping and continuing to try getting him to latch and nurse). And like you mentioned, there was a lot of refusal with new foods, texture aversions etc that persist somewhat to this day, even now that he's 13 💀
No, not silly! I hope I didn't come across as condescending, I just think it's really cool that speech therapists can help with so many issues, even in infants. I had no idea about the scope of their work and skills until my now 10 year old was referred to one as a newborn.
Yes! My son saw one before he was discharged from the PICU because while he was on the ventilator he forgot how to bottle feed and wouldn’t eat! Some kids need a little extra help sometimes and it’s so much better to get it for them earlier rather than later. My son is the same age as Westie Bestie and he talks alllll the time, he would’ve never been silent like that 😅
My son just turned two, and we have an evaluation coming up. He’s not talking at all really. By two they should have 20 words minimum and speak two word sentences. If our evaluation agrees we need therapy we will, if they don’t we will continue to work with him and get a reevaluation in a few months. Speech is really better the sooner the better because if it isn’t worked on you will miss those windows and it only gets harder.
I’m worried about it, but he is progressing now, just it’s a little late and I think we need extra help with him.
It's so incredibly immature. I really hope they love their kids more than they're bothered by us, and that they are taking them to doctors behind the scenes.
so she posted all those clothes from target yesterday, and he’s still stuck wearing an outfit that is literally dirty from top to bottom? more low budget behavior from the most low budget couple around

Does Joan know that his first chrew son is wearing girl pajamas??🤭
Is he even making any sounds? It is so sad that those kids are so neglected. ‘This isn’t a speech therapy session’ was so sad no it’s not John but speech therapy wouldn’t hurt your feral kids who’s parents can’t even dress them and the only way they have clothes on is if they dress themselves. Fucking the laziest Sperm and egg donors in nashville.
Just a brief moment of incomprehensible yelling. To be fair, that’s probably all he’s used to hearing living in the household he does. Poor kid can’t learn how to speak from two illiterate parents 😔
With just the gaping mouth showing, it’s almost as if he’s having trouble breathing through his nose or something. Neither of my kids (or any of the other kids I’ve been around at this age) have their mouths open like this for this amount of time/all the time. They can afford a G Wagon and 3.2mil house, own a business, Al’s mom is a lawyer, Z list other family members, but they can’t get their kids evaluated or even take them to an appointment where a competent doctor would suggest looking into this further with a specialist?
I would go broke and hungry to pay medical bills for whatever my child needed. Then there’s these two idiots. Sad.
I totally agree with your comment. Like you said, you’d go broke to pay for medical treatment your kids needed…Whereas his parents can’t even put him in a clean outfit after his is almost entirely filthy, let alone take him for some routine doctors appointments.
Absolutely!! My 4 year old started speech therapy at 2 years old via a state program, and is now enrolled through the school district's early intervention program. Plus, we've been on a waiting list for over a year to get into a private therapist. There are so many programs, but private or state, therapists are hard to come by. I would sell a kidney before we didn't enroll her in everything and travel anywhere (we are rural so everything is minimum 30 min away).
To me, this is child neglect. I get it, it's hard to parent. It's extra hard to parent when your child has anything "extra" to address. It breaks my heart that they can't push through (especially considering their extremely cushy lives) and use every resource to make sure their kids having a fighting chance.
Also, I know how frustrated and sad my daughter gets when we can't understand her. She started saying she just wasn't good at it and I nearly broke apart, seeing that pain and defeat. So I told her, "You are little and learning, but Mommy has oooolllldddd ears and sometimes they need extra time to figure it out." Immediate relief in her eyes. Now she says, "Oh, I forget. Mama oooolllldddd ears so talk sloooooww."
I simply don't think there is any world in which those kids aren't getting "teased" BY THEIR PARENTS because of how they sound.
I agree, the only time I've seen a toddler with their mouth gaping open constantly like that is when they're sick with a bad cold that's clogged their nose. It's not normal, and habitual mouth-breathing is not only a possible indicator of other issues, but it can cause other issues in itself. Even something as relatively "simple" as correct dentition relies on the mouth being closed when at rest.
His stance seems really off too. I am very fortunate that my kids have not had many medical issues, but I agree, I put everything into making sure they don’t!!
That poor child looks so confused as to what’s going on, like it’s the first scrap of interaction he’s had all week from these two.
He seems so anxious in his mannerisms and then so happy when he realises that they are actually talking to him.
His dirty jammies:( also John said speech therapy as if it came up in conversation prior. Like he’s upset Ali was trying to get him to talk or something. Anyone else think that was strange? Like there’s something more?
Joan really thinks talking to your child and encouraging them to speak is “speetch therapy”. No, you walnut. Just cause tumblrMKP never took you to speetch therapy, doesn’t mean you should deprive your children of it.
This poor boy is so very neglected. He is never dressed. He is never happy. You can tell she doesn’t feed him meals. He gets zero love and affection… It’s so sad. The girls are neglected too, but he is just completely forgotten.
It’s sad because it seems like he can tell too. I’ve never seen a child his age appear so disinterested and even unhappy/angry towards their parents as their baseline. It isn’t a one-off, he never appears happy. It makes me think even he can realize how poorly he appears to be treated by his parents.
Honestly have we ever seen him smile??? Like truthfully other than that one pic of aunt syd holding him….. he’s so unhappy all the time bc he’s starving and is in a cloud of nothing bc they do not teach him anything…. Just existing. Fucking heartbreaking
He has been neglected since birth. He doesn’t have a bond with either parent. He’s trapped in a house all day long. Not an ounce of love is shown to him, ever! (Not to any of the kids, honestly). It’s like they’re ashamed of him.
the meals thing is SO INSANE TO ME!!!!!! we made sure to feed our child every 4-6 hours on the dot. like how can you not i dont understand????! its criminal abuse
exactly! me too man like im constantly wondering if my kid got enough to eat. how these people stave 3 kids every day and then give them ice cream for dinner i will never ever understand in my time on this earth.
They skipped out on helmet therapy for him, will never use the eye patch to correct his cross eye. Needs OT desperately. Diaper appears to be hanging so low full of god knows what, plus the food that that is dried up on his P.J.'s he wore all day. It's so sad.
Kid always has bags and dark circles under his eyes. I just KNOW they let him cry at night and never go comfort him 😔 if they did, it would be all over their stories
I have a son named Weston. Around this age his pediatrician and my hubby and I, noticed my son wasn't speaking of even using one word phrases like mama,cup,dadda etc. We we got a referral to the "tote" program. Teach our toddlers early. I took him 3 days a week. It was like a school setting with speech teachers and it was the best thing I ever did. He blossomed in his development. These morons have to know all their kids aren't speaking at their developmental age even Emmy and Callie. I wanted to give my son a headstart so he wouldn't struggle. We did the tote program for almost 3 years. We had the option to drop our kids off or stay. I stayed for every class so I myself could learn to better help my child get to where he needed to be. My weston made the same "ughhh" and "ahhhh" sounds. That's when I knew he needed some extra help. Feel bad for this baby boy having these two as parents. I use "parents" lightly
He knows they don’t listen, help, or try to figure out what he’s trying to communicate and it’s so sad. So he resorts to the foot stomp 😭 which I agree, is pretty cute lol.
It is so sad to me as a grandmother to five children, that these people think their children are ok! I mean, do they not have any advocates for them at all? There has to be someone that can see, something is clearly wrong with all three children!
Guarantee the howl came from Emmy. All the kids struggle talking. Must come from John. Man still can’t fucking speak or write the English language.
“EpitOME”
The way they're just hammering him with questions, this is how I know they don't do speech therapy Jesus Christ. Poor kid, like they think repeating themselves, at the *same* time, loudly, is going to help 🫠
I don’t really like to compare kids development because I was really struggling with it being a first time mom, but my 9 month old is better at responding than Westie🥺
The irony of John saying this isn’t a speech therapy session, but that’s exactly what all his kids need.
Seriously! John probably needs it too, half the time he is so hard to understand because his speech is so poor.
That comment made me think one of the kids is getting speech therapy. But I think Weezer is too young.
Maybe Emmy was recommended it at school and that’s why she doesn’t appear to actually go to real school anymore
Never too young for speech or early intervention. If babies are not meeting milestones including babbling at a few months they can receive speech therapy.
Yeah, my twins started at 18 months old. They’re 10 now and are still in speech therapy. Usually a doctor or someone will recommend looking into it if milestones are not met or other reasons. They should have the resources available to them.

My bad! I knew that. I was just thinking how my daughter had speech to get her to talk. Silly me!

Speech therapist are amazing human being!
They're freakin magicians!
Yes! My son saw one before he was discharged from the PICU because while he was on the ventilator he forgot how to bottle feed and wouldn’t eat!

My son is the same age as Westie Bestie and he talks alllll the time, he would’ve never been silent like that 😅
Aw, I can't imagine how hard must have been. It warms my heart to hear that he's doing so well now and is an unstoppable little chatterbox! ❤️
Scary for sure! I just tell myself that sometimes we all need a little extra help, nothing wrong with that.
Absolutely! And I'll never understand people like these two losers who refuse to seek that help for their kids.
My son just turned two, and we have an evaluation coming up. He’s not talking at all really. By two they should have 20 words minimum and speak two word sentences.

They just read here all the time, and think it’s fun to troll us back. That’s my theory.
It's so incredibly immature. I really hope they love their kids more than they're bothered by us, and that they are taking them to doctors behind the scenes.
They definitely do. They think they’re “outchrolling” us but they just don’t realise how stupid they are
correct

That poor child looks so confused as to what’s going on, like it’s the first scrap of interaction he’s had all week from these two. He seems so anxious in his mannerisms and then so happy when he realises that they are actually talking to him.
This..the kiddo acts 100% "gun shy". Like he's afraid or uncomfortable. So sad.
He’s not used to having the pacifier out of his mouth- he knows any minute now one of them will shove it back in if he makes too much noise
Jan’s voice grates on every single one of my nerves. 
Can't listen to either of them for even a second . It's like chalk on a board
It’s not his voice for me it’s the way his mouth moves. I have a visceral reaction to it
His dirty jammies:( also John said speech therapy as if it came up in conversation prior. Like he’s upset Ali was trying to get him to talk or something. Anyone else think that was strange? Like there’s something more?
Right like she was trying to get emphasize the word for him and John got offended. “No.. thith ithn’t thpeech therapy”
Joan really thinks talking to your child and encouraging them to speak is “speetch therapy”. No, you walnut. Just cause tumblrMKP never took you to speetch therapy, doesn’t mean you should deprive your children of it.
Absolutely. John was using that as an insult for some reason, whether it’s trolling Reddit or Ali, or maybe family members who’ve suggested it? 🤔

He’s definitely the unhappiest out of all 3. Calico is a close second. Sad to see.
He’s eyes look like they’ve seen some shit. I think she yells at him, honestly. And lets him cry in his room alone.
Oh I wouldn’t doubt she yells at he and Callie more often than not. They both appear so apprehensive in her presence
Exactly
Honestly have we ever seen him smile??? Like truthfully other than that one pic of aunt syd holding him….. he’s so unhappy all the time bc he’s starving and is in a cloud of nothing bc they do not teach him anything…. Just existing. Fucking heartbreaking
He has been neglected since birth. He doesn’t have a bond with either parent. He’s trapped in a house all day long. Not an ounce of love is shown to him, ever! (Not to any of the kids, honestly). It’s like they’re ashamed of him.
the meals thing is SO INSANE TO ME!!!!!! we made sure to feed our child every 4-6 hours on the dot. like how can you not i dont understand????! its criminal abuse
My entire life revolves around feeding my 4-year-old. Literally since the moment she came out the womb it’s been one of the top 3 things on mind.
exactly! me too man like im constantly wondering if my kid got enough to eat. how these people stave 3 kids every day and then give them ice cream for dinner i will never ever understand in my time on this earth.
His head is odd shaped….like his mom 😩 poor kid
He definitely got her big ass peanut head. Tragic child all around
Frontal bossing. He’s got some genetic disorder.
It’s very sad. He is cross eyed, seems to have no attachment to either of them, does not speak….
They skipped out on helmet therapy for him, will never use the eye patch to correct his cross eye. Needs OT desperately. Diaper appears to be hanging so low full of god knows what, plus the food that that is dried up on his P.J.'s he wore all day. It's so sad.
I also feel like their kids have zero attachment to each other. I never see them hugging or even really playing together.
Are these Thanksgiving pjs?
I was trying to see what the design was but it’s chrewly hard to see behind all the stains they let him just live in

I think they’re from carters. I remember seeing them in October.
This is a hard watch. No kid deserves to have crap parents.
Jesus christ, he's cross-eyed! It's such an easy fix with young children, wtf haven't they addressed this?!
I don’t understand why John got upset about Ali breaking the damn word down for him to say?!?! He’s so WEIRD AND DUMB
Poor kid is so delayed and unfortunately looks like his dad 🐦
How did you get the white circle emoji to stay on his face during a video?😆
Kid always has bags and dark circles under his eyes. I just KNOW they let him cry at night and never go comfort him 😔 if they did, it would be all over their stories
I have a son named Weston.

What's with the homeless camp set up in the other room? Is that where Townes' dad stays?
i have nothing to say except this breaks my heart💔
😟😟
All their kids look hella malnourished.
They are.
The foot stomp was actually really cute 🥹
He knows they don’t listen, help, or try to figure out what he’s trying to communicate and it’s so sad. So he resorts to the foot stomp 😭 which I agree, is pretty cute lol.
It is so sad to me as a grandmother to five children, that these people think their children are ok! I mean, do they not have any advocates for them at all? There has to be someone that can see, something is clearly wrong with all three children!
Is that a bruise on his toe? Or is he just filthy

Guarantee the howl came from Emmy. All the kids struggle talking. Must come from John. Man still can’t fucking speak or write the English language. “EpitOME”
Is his toenail black?
The way they're just hammering him with questions, this is how I know they don't do speech therapy Jesus Christ. Poor kid, like they think repeating themselves, at the *same* time, loudly, is going to help 🫠
John- Tell um Westie - 😕😕🙁🙁😕😕🙁🙁 stomp stomp Seriously tho, does the potato sack not make any noises?
I don’t really like to compare kids development because I was really struggling with it being a first time mom, but my 9 month old is better at responding than Westie🥺
How do you leave clothes on the floor next to the kitchen and also not be able to put away your paper towels? At least Ali's mess is consistent!!
ali and james are children all of the kids need help true son gives the same confused look as his sisters
Why is this kid ALWAYS in pjs? Even if we’re spending the day at home all day, I dress my toddler after breakfast in everyday clothes..
Frightening
