[Plagio] Re: Is it too late at 17 months?

Hi Susan,
good for you for insisting on a band. I am so tired of hearing "it
will get better on its own". I really don't understand doctors. There
are parents of children 3, 4,and 16, as well as adults who can confirm
it doesn't always magically get better.

Please let us know how your son does with his band.
