As parents, when we find that our children are stuttering, stuttering, or unable to speak, we feel anxious and don't know what to do. I also don't know how to guide children, afraid of affecting their learning, growth, and future. Many parents may have a tough attitude towards their children when they are in a hurry, leading to more severe stuttering. So why do children stutter?
There are many reasons why children stutter, and common ones may include psychological factors such as mental stress, anxiety, stress, and long-term reprimands, which may cause children to stutter. If some parents act too hastily, intimidate and force their children to speak, correct stuttering or suddenly interrupt their children's speech, it can make their children mentally nervous and easily trigger stuttering.
Or it may be due to underdeveloped or damaged language centers, which can lead to stuttering. It is recommended to treat the underlying disease under the guidance of a doctor. It may also be because children like to imitate, for example, some children may speak normally, but they like to imitate the people around them. If there are people at home or among classmates who stutter, it will eventually develop into stuttering.
Generally speaking, children will experience stuttering throughout the entire stage of learning to speak from the age of 2 to 5, which is different from stuttering. If a child experiences stuttering during this period, do not deliberately correct it, and do not lightly label the child as stuttering. This will only lead the child's stuttering phenomenon to stuttering disease and become a stuttering patient.
