Patient's question:
Sometimes speech is repetitive or hard to express. Sometimes speech is fluent, especially when saying familiar words or short sentences, but gets stammered when using complex words or long sentences. What methods can parents use to guide children to correct this incorrect speaking pattern? 2-year-old child stutteringDoctor's answer:
Traditional therapies: including psychological therapy, speech therapy, breathing therapy, etc., are generally primarily based on psychological treatment, supplemented by exercises to change bad habits, such as practicing recitation, especially memorizing poetry or practicing singing, rhythmic breathing, and pronunciation. This is very beneficial for correcting stuttering because it helps focus the mind on rhythm and rhyme, shifting the stutterer's attention away from the act of pronunciation. With long-term practice, the difficulty in pronunciation will no longer be felt.For children with stuttering, it is important not to pay too much attention but also not to completely ignore it. Do not completely overlook the stuttering, nor scold or blame the child. Reward them immediately when they speak without stuttering. Gradually, it will improve.
