Ditch her. (and she thinks KAILEY'S the one with poor social skills? Gah!) Obvs, the therapist is looney-tunes. Ditch her.

That's absurd! Sounds like it might be time for a new ST, if she can't handle it. WHAT !? She is TWO. That’s absurd!

Follow your gut here -- it's likely the issue is something about the relationship with this therapist, and not about your child's behavior in general.

It's hard because she's my first kid and therefore my first experience parenting a 2 year old. I mean, tell me she needs to work on feeding herself with a spoon and I am all over that criticism. But telling me she has a "behavior" issue after three visits seems whackadoodle at best, even if said with the best of intentions. Thank you guys.

What a completely inappropriate thing to say to the involved, caring, educated, and 100% on board supportive loving Mama that you are. I would see how the home visit goes and I don't disagree with Wendy P, if that attitude continues to impede either your or Kailey's relationship with her, DITCH HER. I also tend to agree with Ei in wondering if that woman has children. Two's are TOUGH, the best, the worst, the in between, they are just tough at times. Thinking of you sweetie.

Honey, don't, DO NOT let her ruffle your feathers. There is always someone who thinks they know more about your kids than you do. You are the expert on your child. She's an hour a week SPEECH (not behavioral) therapist. And I'd lay odds she's a childless one. The ones who say shit like that always are. Oh way to start off a relationship!!!

First off, yes Kailey is two and acting like a 2 year old. And secondly, your relationship with this therapist is what - three visits old? Who is she to assume the familiarity with you to feel comfortable even making a comment like that? Can you change therapists? WHAT!?! I can’t believe she said that!
