About this service
Stuttering / Dysfluency in Children Did you know there is no such thing as fluent speech? Stuttering - Dysfluency in ChildrenLearning to talk is not always easy. Between the age of 2 and 6 years, when your child is rapidly developing speech and language skills, breaks in the rhythm of speech are expected and are not usually a cause for concern. The exact cause of stuttering is unknown. Speech production is an extremely complex physical-neurological-psychological process. A very slight physical variation in the activity of the brain can interfere with the rapid coordinated movements of the vocal cords, tongue and lips, creating what we call stuttering. Stress can certainly make stuttering worse. Stuttering sometimes runs in families. Early identification and intervention are important steps in helping the child to develop fluent speech.
