What to do if your child has periodic stuttering

Stuttering is what we usually call stammering. It is a language disorder that occurs especially in many children. It is usually a temporary stuttering, which means it occurs for a period of time and is not a long-term situation. This makes many parents very worried. In fact, this is also an abnormal situation with many reasons. Parents should pay attention to it and actively look for the reasons. What should I do if my child stutters temporarily? Let’s find out.

1. First of all, don’t worry too much. Stuttering is one of the common language barriers in children. When a child stutters, his speech may be intermittent or repetitive. If this happens occasionally, it may be because he is nervous or does not know how to express his ideas. If it happens only occasionally, parents should not worry. Communicate with him more often and guide him on how to express his ideas. This should help alleviate the child's stuttering.

2. In fact, there is an explanation for children’s stuttering. Stuttering can be divided into temporary stuttering, benign stuttering and permanent stuttering. According to your description, your child is four years old, so he is in the stage of benign stuttering. At this time, he needs the help of his parents. You need to correct him patiently. If you persist in this way, it should disappear in more than half a year or longer. Don't be impatient at this time. If you are anxious, he will also be nervous, which will make him more prone to stuttering.

3. In addition, you should cultivate your child’s self-confidence, let him speak more, speak louder, and be less nervous, which can also reduce stuttering. If you are still worried, you can go to the hospital to consult a doctor. The doctor can give a more precise plan, which may be more helpful in eliminating your child's stuttering.

The above is an introduction on what to do if a child has periodic stuttering. In normal times, we should encourage the children more, communicate more with them, and correct the children's stuttering in many ways. Long-term correction and conditioning will generally get better. In addition, we should let the children speak more, including reciting ancient poems and other methods.
