Do you need therapy for mild stuttering?

Do you need therapy for mild stuttering? Hello everyone, So I have a mild stutter that comes and goes. It hasn't impacted me that much. I have had job interviews and did presentations at work without...

I stutter. My 5 year old, who has a slew of development issues, now also has a pronounced stutter. The feeling I have been wrestling with is that he already has all these other issues, the poor kid ...

I stutter and my daughter started stuttering at the same age I did. Despite what her doctor said, I got her into early intervention therapy that has been proven to help mitigate. She's so much better ...

Sort of a staged process, but heres a short list of some things: - start off by finding a good speech pathologist, id recommend against any that think ‘remedies’ are solutions rather than actual exerc...

My dh is a lifelong stutterer and was so terrified at my ultrasound when he found out it was a boy because stuttering tends to run in males more. Yes my son did have some speech issues from beginning ...

I could describe my 5 year old just like your daughter. Studies show that early intervention is best. If your school district won't evaluate her, check what your health insurance covers. Ours was a l...

I have a 3 year old and he never stops talking and doesn't stutter. Our stuttering just means our kids are statistically more likely but doesn't mean they will. I was very concerned about him stutt...

There is no guarantee your kids will start to stutter, it's just more likely than if you didn't stutter. And if they do, you will be their father (guessing you're a guy 🙂) , and you know everything ...

>I also don't like how the program almost punishes him for stuttering by having him repeat things. There are ways to give verbal contingencies without making it feel like a punishment. If that's t...

Hi, Our son will be 4 soon, and we are currently doing the Palin PCI program, it's a program for children up to 7 years. We are very happy with the program, but it's a lot of work. Our son is stutter...
