Question
My son is almost three years old. When he was one, he could call many people’s names. But now, when he speaks, he sometimes stammers and takes a while to finish his sentences. Sometimes, it’s better. What should we do to help him improve this situation?
Answer
There’s no need to correct his current condition. Many children go through a stage of stammering as they learn to speak. If you’re too concerned about the way he speaks, he might become more tense, which could make it harder for him to improve. If his speech is not smooth, it might be due to discomfort. In this case, you can pretend not to notice and have more conversations with your child, allowing him to practice speaking. Over time, he will adjust himself gradually. Wishing your child a speedy recovery and a healthy body and a beautiful life.
