How to correct a tendency towards stuttering?

Patient's question:

My baby is three years old. When he speaks, his speech rate is very fast, and he also has a slight stuttering problem. I'm worried that as he grows older, the stuttering will become more severe. So, I'd like to ask, how should children undergo language correction training?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. To the parent, when a child has a stuttering problem, it is helpful to slow down their speaking pace. This can not only reduce the occurrence of stuttering but also make their pronunciation clearer. Once the child no longer stutters, you can gradually increase their speaking speed. In daily life, it is important to remind the child to speak in a softer voice, as this can also effectively prevent stuttering.
