How to cure a child's stuttering?

When children have stuttering problems, most parents will have a wrong approach, because when they find this phenomenon, they will always involuntarily scare the children and tell them to speak fluently. However, for the children, this will bring them more impact, because they will feel scared and worried that they will be scolded by adults if they speak like this, so they will be more reluctant to speak, and then the correction of stuttering will not be very effective.

The causes of stuttering are roughly as follows: ① Sudden mental stimulation, such as fright, fear, change of environment, etc. ② When children are learning to speak, parents are too demanding and correct them too much. ③ Stuttering due to imitating other people’s stuttering. ④Forcibly correcting left-handedness can also cause stuttering. It may also be related to genetic factors.

Stuttering is not a physiological defect or a disease of the vocal organs, but a language disorder that is closely related to the psychological state. Correcting children's stuttering should begin before school age. Parents are required to start from the following aspects:

Eliminate human factors in the environment that cause children to be nervous. People around children should not laugh at or mock children who stutter, so as to dispel their concerns about stuttering. A regular life, adequate sleep and rich games will gradually make children's temporary stuttering disappear.

If adults speak to children in a calm and gentle tone and let the children imitate this calm tone, stuttering will gradually decrease. Participating in stuttering correction training classes allows children with stuttering to care for and help each other in a group environment, be more enterprising, and develop the habit of speaking calmly. You can also combine it with music, dance, and rhythmic movements, which is often more effective in correcting stuttering.

People who are overly excited or mentally nervous can be treated with small doses of medication, such as bromine. Traditional Chinese medicine can also be used, such as acupuncture at the cheek-cartilage, Lianquan, Neiguan, Hegu and other acupoints.

It is undeniable that every parent cares about their children, but you should focus on the correct method. When your child has some problems, you must not act according to your own temper, because the child's mind is more fragile. When facing stuttering problems, you should help your child build self-confidence and encourage him to speak more.
