In my experience, if a child is going to correct an /r/, he can correct it with therapy once a week, and if the child is having great difficulty then 5 times a week is not going to help that much more. I tell parents that when a child has difficulty with /r/, for some children it can take years and sometimes they have to be dismissed because minimal progress was made. And something I often think about is that as a parent (not as an SLP), I would be working on it constantly at home--we as SLPs always feel that it is our full responsibility, but experience has taught me that the child and parents are just as responsible. You do not have to feel that you are not doing enough because you are.
