    This is not teething only. The child needs thorough medical attention. It seems like an infection.
    I know all you guys mean well but using the word "developmental delay" is not appropriate. Please do not suggest this no matter what you think. It takes a qualified medical professional to say that.
    Certainly this is something that the parents must be worried about. As a provider you should put your foot down and ask for a medical certificate.
    Most of all it is important to educate the parents that there are pretty bad viruses which can cause lethargy- neural debilitation and it is safe to take the child to emergency and explain all symptoms.

    An honest question...can I ask why? I've never been in this position and don't know this situation...I'm just wondering why it's not appropriate?
