You can moderate screen time by engaging with your kid as the video plays. That's what I used to do with my kid when I was WFH. I can't take that chance anymore unfortunately.

Just ranting. We know what is best for kids. But you know after a long hours in office we just want to chill.

I noticed before covid it was more manageable. Don't really bring work to home. But after covid wfh there is no boundaries between work and personal time anymore.

Frankly I did thought of quitting and focusing on my kids. Toying with the idea

Here is the funny thing

Whenever we ask him what's your friends name he said I dont know.

We went just spoke to him teacher and showed them the assessment. Frankly they we really puzzled. Their feedback

1. From their observation it is not as bad as the assessment
2. He knows his friends name
3. He is pretty ok. For sure there are some issues like he usually can't carry a conversation he just like to answer yes or no
4. He can tell stories.
5. He can read not fluent but I am happy.

They think maybe this 1 hour assessment is not wholesome enough or that he is not comfortable with the therapist.

Anyway we intend to send him for a clinical test. Called sunway,  next appointment is in March. My eye pop out. Wtf.....

Yeah. I was able to secure a slot in November with a developmental pediatrician which I am very thankful.

He now attends an EIP. But thing is eip will just do a general intervention. As I read there are a lot of branches. Could be cognitive, sensory , speech etc. We want a targeted one.
