What should children do if they stutter? If the child stutters, parents should do this:
Let children listen to beautiful language more. Beautiful language includes beautiful voice, fluent expression and concise language, such as children's stories and children's poems. If parents can work together with their children, the effect will be better.
Talk to children patiently, give them more demonstrations, and make fewer corrections to eliminate their psychological pressure. Let children adjust and correct themselves easily and naturally in the process of speaking.
Language correction training for children's speaking balance: when speaking, the mood should be stable, the muscles should be relaxed and the breathing should be even.
Speak slowly: speak slowly. Think it over, don't talk while thinking.
Clear pronunciation: pronounce word by word, read word by word, especially the first word of each sentence, and speak softly and slowly. Pronunciation: vowels such as A, O, E, I and U should be prolonged.
Practice more at ordinary times: let children sing more songs, read more nursery rhymes, tell more stories or repeat their happy things in different scenes, such as home and kindergarten, so as to exercise their consistency.
Speak slowly when talking to children. If the child doesn't answer for a while, don't rush to remind him, but let him speak naturally and immerse the child in the atmosphere of natural conversation. Let the children speak naturally, without paying attention to their stuttering. When the child is talking, don't interrupt, correct or blame. Let the children speak slowly, which can not only feed the stutterers, but also make people hear clearly. When children stop stuttering, they will slowly improve their speech speed.
Help children build confidence in curing stuttering. Parents should create a relaxed and happy life and language environment for their children and reduce their concern about stuttering. We should also create opportunities for children to play with fluent children often. At the same time, teachers and parents should educate children who play with stuttering children, and don't laugh at and dig at stuttering children. With psychological support, they can help to eliminate tension and build confidence in curing stuttering.
The etiology and pathological mechanism are not clear, which may be related to the following reasons.
Psychotherapy parents should create a happy and stable environment for stuttering children, eliminate their mental burden and reduce their stuttering. When children stutter, don't imitate and laugh at them, don't let people around you pay too much attention to their speech defects, and don't show impatience and rudely interrupt their speech. Parents should give more comfort and encouragement, ignore it, and guide their children to speak slowly, reduce the volume, speak calmly, and guide them to establish self-confidence to overcome stuttering.
The causes of children's stuttering imitate and imply that most stutterers learn from others' stuttering when they are young. Childhood is a critical period for learning and mastering language. One of the psychological characteristics of children is that they are imitative and easy to be hinted. If there are stutterers among relatives, friends, classmates and neighbors, they will become the objects of imitation.
Psychological factors A large number of facts show that children's stuttering is the result of fear and anxiety caused by children's fright, severe reprimand, punishment, ridicule, sudden change of environment, parents' death or divorce, family disharmony and other factors.
Diseases, such as nervous system disorders closely related to pronunciation, language understanding and even reading and writing, such as epilepsy, measles, fever, encephalopathy, whooping cough, scarlet fever, pus discharge, rhinitis, tonsillitis or hypertrophy in children, and diseases in otorhinolaryngology can affect breathing and vocalization to some extent.
Genetic problems stuttering is related to heredity, the advantages of both hemispheres of the brain or some kind of dysfunction and the defects of language nerve endings. Families of stutterers often have a history of stuttering. In addition, the characteristic therapy thinks that the main reason of stuttering is that some muscle tissues in patients are too fragile, and these factors can be passed on to the next generation through germ cells.
The symptoms of children's stuttering are mainly manifested as speech rhythm disorder, repetition, interruption and blockage of words or words, which may be accompanied by speech-assisted actions, such as stamping feet and patting legs.
Children who stutter often show timidity, withdrawal, inferiority or other emotional disorders. Meet the following three items:
① The repetition or prolongation of sounds or syllables often occurs, which affects the fluency of speech.

③ Rule out TIC disorder and other nervous system diseases. Pronunciation-the nervous spasm of respiratory organs leads to language rhythm disorder, which is more likely to occur when excited, fearful or emotional. It can be manifested in different forms, such as inaccurate pronunciation of the first word, repetition of the first word, disordered pronunciation of a word in the middle of the discourse, or meaningless repetition of pronunciation. When a child speaks, he may be accompanied by stamping his foot, waving his hand, blinking, crooked mouth, trembling lips, shaking his trunk and other actions. It is easy to suffer from autism, inferiority, shyness and other emotions due to stuttering. Some children are often excited or agitated, accompanied by emotional instability and sleep disorders.
Prevention of Children's Stuttering In order to prevent children from stuttering, it is very important to arrange children's daily life and cultivate good hygiene habits. Children should have a regular daily life, eat at the specified time, and ensure adequate sleep and rest. Don't force children aged 3-7 to recite all kinds of long stories or poems that are not suitable for their language ability.
The key to correct children's stuttering is to cultivate good speaking habits. For stuttering children, parents and teachers should patiently teach them how to speak clearly and express themselves correctly. If he speaks correctly, we should encourage him to speak well and help him build up confidence in learning and mastering speech skills. If he doesn't speak clearly and fluently, he should listen patiently and don't interrupt or scold at will, which will make the child afraid to speak in front of others in the future, or he will be nervous and stutter when he speaks.
Music can play a good role in correcting children's stuttering Rhythmic singing and recitation are helpful to children's language training. After listening to the music, the child is in a happy mood and distracted when talking, instead of just paying attention to the action of talking. In this way, children can easily say what they want to say. Storytelling is also a way to help children correct stuttering. Parents can ask their children to describe kindergarten and school; Talk to children, talk about new books and TV plays. It should be noted that parents and teachers should be patient, and children who stutter should be calm and unhurried. Don't spend too long at a time. After a long time, children who stutter easily feel mentally exhausted, usually for 20 to 30 minutes. Parents or teachers in schools and kindergartens should give warmth and help to stuttering children in many ways, and people around them should not make fun of, laugh at or deliberately imitate children's stuttering.
