I'll start working on slowing down my speech etc. When I'm talking to her as well. I never thought of that so thank you. I'll start researching the lindcombe program/seeing if any SLP use it here. S...

Oh, cmon, bro. Smoking or starring at the monitor or any other thing didn't affect your ability to speak. The more you speak with other people - the less you stutter and the less you practice the mor...

I would not advise going to a SLP, as this can reinforce stuttering which it did for me You are doing a great job by not pointing it out Act like it is no problem and that stuttering is not a bad th...

Interesting. I think the coddling can be a big issue when it comes to holding back. Thank you for your comment...

I have nowhere near narcissistic parents, but they definitely had certain parenting practices that weren’t the best for a kid that’s on its way of holding back: - “Let me do it.” - for something that...

All of my siblings(1 brother and 1 sister) started to stutter ever since we were in elementary school. We did not stutter so severely but it was bad enough that our parents were worried about our fut...

I’m a mom who stutters. My mother is a speech pathologist and tells me that my three year old son shows no signs of stuttering. We listen to him closely. But honestly the blessings of being a parent f...

I'm a parent. My kids are toddlers though. Sometimes my stutter is annoying because I'm trying to calmly assert what needs to happen and it takes me longer to say it. As uncomfortable as stuttering i...

Look, I am not a parent, but my mother has stuttered in the past and, sadly, it could be passed down. I always think in upsides and downsides. Yes it will be hard for the kid sometimes, presentations ...

Out of caution I'd make try find out how things are in school for him, my stutter also begun at age 6 and it was caused by bullying. Other than that, let him take his time on sentences and try to mai...

Treat him normally. Always let him finish sentences even if you know what he's gonna say and don't ever rush on him even if you're in a rush for something. Reaching somewhere a minute or two late woul...

Any parents with stutter here?

Any parents with stutter here? I noticed that I tend to stutter more when talking to my 11 year old son. I think it is because he often does not listen (like most kids) and so I often end up repeating...

It does concern me but at first sign I'll get them into speech therapy. I was never sent as a child. And I'll be an example of how you can be OK with a stutter....

Thank you we are excited. Great point about guiding them, both my parents speak fluently so it was more difficult to explain my stuttering anxieties growing up. The most help I got from my dad was "ca...

Hi there. I have two kids who are 12 and 10. My daughter stutters just like me. My son doesn't. There are many other traits that can be passed down to kids that will affect their life, so no need to d...

Early intervention!! That will teach you and your child learn a lot about the diagnosis and ways to manage it, together. Early intervention is free from birth to 3, just a fun fact. As a PWS, my paren...
