How to correct stuttering in children?

Patient's question:

At the age of two and a half, it was discovered that she had a stutter in her speech. I thought her language was very adult-like. For a while, her stuttering improved, but now it has become severe again. Since the age of two, she has loved watching cartoons and TV, and she pays particularly close attention when watching cartoons. At this time, I noticed her stuttering, and it happened that I came across an article in the Reference News that reported excessive TV and cartoon watching can be harmful to children's language development, making it easier to cause language and learning disorders. From then on, I controlled her cartoon watching, but now at three years and three months, her stuttering is very severe—sometimes she repeats words, and other times she has to wait for a long time before she can speak.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you can teach him to train slowly and build his confidence. Stuttering can be overcome. Use pinyin or simple words to make him read. I believe it will be effective.
You can let her practice speaking short sentences, encourage her, praise her. In this way, the child will feel relaxed mentally, and they won’t be nervous when speaking.
