Say Goodbye to Stammer with Stuttering Therapy

Do you see your child is stammering often while talking? Does your child drawls or struggle to pronounce words or syllables while speaking? If these signs are present in your child and worrying you, do not worry. 

Your child may be suffering from a speech disorder called stammering or stuttering. It’s clinically known as a childhood-onset fluency disorder. We can see this disorder, especially among some children when their language and speech abilities are in the developmental stage. You can also see most kids are still continuing with this disorder even though they are growing and entering adulthood. 

Stuttering adversely impacts the self-esteem of the individual. Their interactions with others also get hampered most often and that becomes a hurdle to success. So, it’s important to treat stuttering at the initial stage with effective treatment, such as stuttering therapy, in order to prevent it from turning difficult for the individual to communicate and socialize.

What Are The Causes of Stammering or Stuttering?

Most usually, stuttering occurs due to underdeveloped speech and language abilities in kids. But, there could also be other factors or a combination of them that can make a child stutter. Some of those factors are a family history of stuttering, abnormalities, or problems in speech motor control, brain injuries or other serious medical conditions, intellectual disabilities, mental and emotional health issues, etc.
