Patient's question:

7-year-old child was very quiet when he was young, but later he spoke incoherently, repeating single words or sentences. How is stuttering in children treated?

Doctor's answer:

When you were young, answering might be a bit stuttering, and parents don't need to worry too much. This is actually a normal physiological phenomenon, and it can be corrected through correct and scientific methods. Parents should treat children with stuttering correctly and should not overcorrect their answers, prevent punishment or gender discrimination, or mock, scold, or criticize the child. Parents need to have enough patience and encourage them to be brave in speaking and not to rush them to speak slowly and gradually express their thoughts, gradually mastering the rhythm of fluent speech. According to the child's verbal expression, you can teach them to read aloud, recite rhymes, tell jokes, and stories to the child.
