Arguments against the Aggressive Pursuit of Voice Therapy for Children.

Sander, Eric K.

Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, v20 n1 p94-101 Jan 1989

A less aggressive treatment strategy is proposed in the area of children's voice disorders. Speech clinicians are urged not to be over-zealous in imposition of their own voice standards. The potential threat that vocal pathologies hold for children's larynges is felt to be largely over-rated. (Author/JDD)
