How can you correct a 4-year-old child's stutter?

Patient's question:

Our child is only four years old now, but recently I've noticed that he has some stuttering issues. It's happened several times. How can we correct this?

Doctor's answer:

If a child suffers from stuttering, it is recommended to encourage them to practice more regularly. Psychological therapy, reflex therapy, and breathing therapy can also be effective. In daily life, parents can have the child recite or read poems and other materials to practice pronunciation. Guide the child to speak slowly and correct their speech patterns. Parents should have enough patience and focus on encouraging the child to speak up rather than worrying about how well they speak. They should not rush the child but rather support them in expressing their thoughts gradually.
