Stammering is not a big problem
Stammering and speech therapy
Stammering is something while there is no proper development of language in children, which may take place due to tongue, and floors of mouth not connected properly. There are a few cases where children speak clearly while alone but not so when among the other people. They know this problem as anxiety nervousness.
There are some medicines for this particular kind of problem but there are a few speech therapies, which may correct such problems. Generally, there are ENT surgeons who can solve this problem but some specialist speech therapists that can take care of this problem better in most cases. Some of the cases need treatment through psychotherapy as well where the children found mentally below average.
Parents are responsible
This is responsibility of parents to see to it that no one is trying to look down at children like these. Children with such problems become extra cautious and become sensitive while among the friends and relatives.
They try to avoid talking or taking part in discussions where they have to speak longer sentences. Children with stammering problem avoid taking parts in cultural and other activities where they have to encounter many other children. Here begins the role of parents to see to it that no one tries to make them feel inferior and handle the situation wisely.
Is stammering by heredity?
There is no confirmation on a scientific ground weather stammering is a problem that occurs by heredity. This problem generally surfaces while the child reaches the age of three to five. In some cases few of the children do stammer in the beginning but most of them give-up this habit soon on their own. Only a very few continue to stammer while they reach in their adult age.
How to treat stammering
There is no medicine as such which can treat stammering. There are certain speech therapies, which can treat a child successfully with regular and systematic practice. In some cases, the problem could be psychology related where a child found afraid due to certain reasons with certain persons. These persons could be close relatives including parents, teachers or some other relatives.
There is an urgent need to know the real reason of stammering in a child in the initial stage. If the reason is diagnosed psychological then there is an urgent need to tackle the problem and taken care before it takes a serious shape.
The child must have total support of every one to feel secured and never feels that he is a laughing material. He must never loose his self-confidence that should help him a lot. If a child continues to stammer even at a later stage then the best way to get rid of the problem is to practice speaking standing in front of a mirror as if speaking with a real person. That should help him get rid of the problem faster.
Some people think that this is a problem which they can get rid of with the help of treatments offered by quacks or in some cases even some non conventional methods like going to people who claim to treat them with the help of magic etc. may also help. That is not true as no one but only scientific methods are successful in such cases. Therefore, never delay the treatment and get rid of stammering as soon as one can.
