Unfortunately by age 7 the chance of natural recovery (naturally stop stuttering) is low. There are interventions out there to treat stuttering in children (Lidcombe program). However last time I comm...

Part of the reason more males are diagnosed with autism is because, up until about a decade ago, the diagnostic criteria did not include typically presenting female autism traits. Top universities ar...

I think you’re confusing stuttering with some other sort of speech habit of people with DS. Maybe people with DS repeat words a lot or something, but that is not the same as struggling to speak due to...

I wish I didn't miss the post you're responding to. Assuming people who stutter have lower intelligence is a nurotypical myth and (in my opinion) stems from the neurtypical tendancy to flock towards c...

I have a small "well, acshually" on the topic: a large portion of those with down syndrome have a stutter and they are obviously intellectually handicapped. Nothing against them, just stating the fact...

I want to know what kind of stutter you have ....

This might be a hot take, but I think knowing that stuttering can be a neurological problem, psychological, and physical should be common knowledge. ADULTS who don't know this are just purposefully st...

No idea who the guy is that you shared, but I had some spare time, so here we go. I'll start off by saying that stuttering research needs a major overhaul if these are the people that are meant to ha...
