I've stuttered since before I can remember. I've now got a 12 year old son who also stutters. I know how disheartening and demoralizing it can be, but if you continue down this path of beating yoursel...

Thank you for this advice. This has been weighing on me for a bit now. Talking to my parents the only thing they recommended was SPL and for me to take my time...

This has been said before, but don't admonish your child. I know that it didn't help me. If she's only two she'll probably go out of it. Around 5 or 6 maybe talk to a speech therapist. The majority o...

I'll try and answer this from a childhood treatment perspective, if I'm understanding your question. I think you're asking about considering client perspectives in treatment outcomes. We have more tre...

Does my 3 year old have a stutter? And if so what do you think I should do about it?

Does my 3 year old have a stutter? And if so what do you think I should do about it? Hello all :) Please excuse me I have absolutely no experience with stuttering so I'm not sure what to do about this...

You should get him to a speech therapist ASAP! If it’s lasted for 2 years (usually 6 months is the golden Rule), and there’s stuttering in the family, he will likely stutter forever if he doesn’t get ...

Get him a speech therapist now. He will most likely continue to stutter, but the speech therapy will give him many useful techniques to manage his stuttering. I was in the exact same situation as your...

Is there a genetic disposition or is it through the child learning from their parents? I know someone else who stutters and his kids stuttered. However they had to see speech therapists as children an...

It’s hard to know for sure without listening to it but it may very well be as stuttering is quite common in children (usually starting at the ages of 2-4) and most (90% IIRC) out grow it. My advice wo...
