Thanks...it sounds the same, just couldn't find many examples of kids that stutter and at the same time, don't stop talking. From what we gathered with SLPs, kids have a tendency of avoiding to speak. And he did in the very beginning. We were able to help him by extending the word together with him. But that no longer helps. He isn't stuck on a specific word, but mostly he loops through the same sentence until he gets it all out at once. That can take 10 attempts and he will ALWAYS start from the beginning. We would like to help him more than just waiting...as I said, we are used to doing exercises with him due to his need of occupational therapy and struggles with development delays.
