Seeking advice for my son

Seeking advice for my son I (F27) honestly don’t know where to start but I found this subreddit one day after watching my son (M7) struggle for the last 4 years. I thought I’d give it a try see what p...

In my case, Im 15 years old and 2 weeks ago I told them, they noticed that I was slow to talk, but they didnt really know, they felt some guilt but its normal for any problem, dont worry Talking with...

If you feel like your parents would be supportive, my advice would be to talk to them about your problem Tell them how much it affects you, and practice with them. Pick a book or something to read an...

Hi there. You are already an amazing father, i think every stutterer would wish him a parent like you. I would suggest you to tell your daughter very frequently, that its ok if she stutters, that you...

Give her some time. She's still little, and be happy with her. As she gets older those feelings of frustration and isolation may only increase for her - especially as she gets to the teenager years wh...

I grew up in third world , my father also stuttered . While growing up there were absolutely no services nor groups . My mother boosted my confidence all her life , that helped me a lot ....

I've stuttered since before I can remember. I've now got a 12 year old son who also stutters. I know how disheartening and demoralizing it can be, but if you continue down this path of beating yoursel...

Having confidence is key to pushing through the stutter. Teaching kids "techniques" and "tools" to avoid stuttering will only make matters worse because they still will have that lingering fear that t...

Continually reinforce to your kids that the goal is not fluency, but to stutter easily. To work on owning it, to manipulate ones own stutter to break the grip and ease in and out of the stutter. You t...

There are indeed groups. But with covid-19 most of them are remote only. I thought about finding a local group and contacting parents to see if they were comfortable setting up a park playdate or what...

As a fellow parent of a 6 year old son with a sever stutter, I feel your concern. I worry all the time about how my son will continue to handle bullying and issues with his stutter. So far, he's handl...

The National Stuttering Association - westutter.org - has resources that are worth looking into. It would have helped me if my parents had simply acknowledged my stuttering and been part of my proces...

There are lots of great children's books dealing with the topic. Most of them also have sections at the end which give information to the parents or small exercises that I sometimes find pretty helpfu...

Hey. My best advice would be to make sure that the environment at home is peaceful, with not too much stress and noise. Have conversations with her about her day etc when eating breakfast, dinner or l...

Bro I feel for you. Even though i’m just a kid, I dreaded the day (if it came to it) that I’d have a child that stutters. It breaks me to tears even when i think of it. All i can tell you is that your...

Stuttering in younger children happens quite often. If she keeps stuttering past the age of 7/8 you need to start paying attention because it might be more permanent. For now, keep encouraging her to ...

Honesty, my childhood was vague af so maybe that might happen to ur daughter too. It really just comes down to having her friends be able to stand up with her and support her when she’s not in the rig...

This is a tough one, I will say. I think that my best advice is to give her the tools to be open about her stutter, and teach her to tell others about it so they can hope to be patient with her. At t...
