Patient's question:
Stuttering induction occurred in senior one when interacting with strangers or people one is particularly respectful of, and the stuttering was especially severe, often unable to pronounce the first word when speaking.Doctor's answer:
Stuttering is primarily characterized by delayed and abnormal speech production, with the rate of speech development being slower than that of the corresponding age. The speech may be unclear or contain pronunciation errors. Some studies have found that children with stuttering have a family history of the condition. The main external factors include poor language learning environments, such as parents who stutter, parents who speak quickly or ambiguously, or children finding it difficult to imitate.Psychological factors: Stuttering in children often occurs after acute or chronic psychological trauma, leading many theories to suggest that psychological factors may be a significant cause of stuttering. Some children develop stuttering due to severe punishment or scolding from parents, teachers, or others around them, causing sudden and intense psychological distress. This fear or shock can trigger stuttering. Psychological stress, anxiety, and other emotional factors can also lead to stuttering.
