Causes of stuttering

The reasons for stuttering are complicated. According to many years' correction experience, most stutterers deliberately imitate others in childhood, as well as diseases, fright, mental trauma and other reasons. Here is a summary of several situations for parents' self-analysis.

copy

Children are very good at imitation. They feel fresh when they see anything, and like to imitate, especially those who stutter around them. Some people deliberately imitate some literary works after seeing them. After a long time, they form the habit of stuttering, which is difficult to get rid of.

2. Effects of diseases

From the common diseases in childhood, only when the nose, throat or respiratory tract are affected will there be serious symptoms, so that when the child is sick, abnormal words and actions, such as stuttering, will be formed over time.

be afraid

In childhood, many people stuttered because of fright. Parents' improper education methods, frequent reprimands and driving may make children stutter because of fright.

Second, the critical period of stuttering

1. About three years old.

Stuttering mostly occurs in early childhood, especially when they learn to speak and speak. During this period, their conditioned reflex is not consolidated enough. What is presented to them is a new world and new things. They are active in thinking but have a small vocabulary, so they have so-called stuttering phenomena such as pauses and breathes. (Note: The stuttering at this stage is a fake stuttering)

2. About six years old

Children in this period are at school age, that is, when a large number of higher-level requirements are put forward for children's speech, parents are ambitious and teachers are strict. If teachers and parents don't pay attention to the laws of children's physical and mental speech development, don't respect children's personality and behavior characteristics, and take tough measures such as so-called "strict education". If they are not properly guided when they say bad things, it will easily lead to stuttering.

Three common types of stuttering in children

1. Recurrent stuttering

2. moderate stuttering

3. Habitual stuttering

Characteristics: This is a habitual speech rhythm disorder caused by directional reflex.

4. Difficult stuttering
