Hi, I’m the parent of a 7 year old who stutters. I’m super happy to communicate with you. My advice: - get your child evaluated by the most qualified specialist in your area. (Fluency specialists are the most qualified) - if that person recommends School based therapy gear yourself up for a fight. School systems make business decisions. I live in a horrendous district and I had to fight tooth and nail for services. - I am very happy to talk to you and tell you everything Ive learned. They put me through hell but I fought for the services my child requires. - if it’s impacting how your child deals with life, you can find support in the National Stuttering Association.
