Question
How can I treat my child’s stuttering? My child has recently started to have a stuttering problem, what should we do?
Answer
When you discover that your child has a stuttering issue, parents should take the following steps:
- Do not become overly anxious or critical about your child’s stuttering, as this can increase their stress.
- Conduct language training to help your child slow down their speaking pace, reducing speaking pressure.
- Avoid exposing your child to other children with a stutter to prevent mutual influence.
- Children who are right-handed should not be forced to switch to using their left hand.
