New Jersey, a mom of a 3-year-old boy who has developmental speech delays said of the mask mandates that still exist in her state as of now, "For speech therapy for a toddler, masking isn't exactly what you should be doing, at least in my opinion.
It's against what you're trying to accomplish."She said, "It's like if a dentist required the patient to wear a mask, right?
I think for speech therapy for a child, it's the same thing."The mom did not want her family's name used due to privacy concerns.
She also said she lives in "a liberal area" and would feel uncomfortable if it became known within her community that she'd spoken out on this issue.Gov.
