Stuttering: Why It Happens And What You Can Do About It
If your child s really struggling with blockages or his stuttering hasn t improvedwithin three to six months, speak to his pediatrician, who can refer you to
http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/toddler/toddlerdevelopment/11567.html

Extractions: The mind of a toddler is buzzing with questions, commands, and mangled lyrics to "Sesame Street" songs. As your child gradually learns how to turn his thoughts into intelligible sounds, he's bound to make mistakes, especially when he's tired, excited, or upset. His speech may be peppered with "um"s and "uh"s, or he may frequently repeat words or phrases ("Hey, hey, hey, hey, Mom. Can I, uh, have a story? A story?"). He might also repeat the first sound of a word once or twice, li-li-like this. These missteps are completely normal, and your child will outgrow them on his own. This stumbling over words is different from a true stuttering problem (also called dysfluency or disfluency), which affects only 5 percent of children and is very unusual in toddlers. If your child is truly stuttering, he may hold out the first sound in a word, saying "s-s-s-soda," or repeat the sound, as in "Sh-sh-sh-she nice!" He may also open his mouth to say something but get stuck before any sound comes out. Along with this "blocking," you may see tension in his jaw or cheeks, and he may look away or clench his fist from the tension. Nobody knows what causes stuttering. Many researchers think that small glitches in a child's brain may interfere with the timing and rhythm of his speech. Just as some kids have trouble catching fly balls, some simply don't have the verbal coordination to speak clearly. Stuttering can run in families, and it's four times more common in boys than in girls. The condition has nothing to do with intelligence, and it's definitely not a sign of bad parenting or hidden psychological problems. Stressful events such as moving to a new house or going to a new daycare setting can make stuttering worse, but they won't cause the problem in the first place.
How Can I Tell If My Child Has A Stuttering Problem?
Pediatric speechlanguage pathologist Patricia McAleer Hamaguchi says stumblingover words is different from a true stuttering problem, which is very unusual
http://www.babycenter.com/expert/toddler/toddlerdevelopment/2486.html

Extractions: Answer: When your child is in the midst of a great jump in his language skills (between ages 30 months and 5 years) it's natural that he should have difficulty putting his sentences together in a fluent way. His brain is like a computer, desperately trying to pull up the right words in the right order. While the computer is "searching," his mouth may go into a "pause" (translated: repeat) mode. So it may sound like this: "Mom ... I-Mom ... I-I-want-uh-I want you-gimme dat teddy bear!" The whole word or first syllable is repeated, not the first sound. This is a normal developmental phase that most children go through. You may notice it more when your child is tired, excited, or upset. This stumbling over words is different from a true stuttering problem (also called dysfluency or disfluency), which affects only 5 percent of children and is very unusual in toddlers. If your child is truly stuttering, he may hold out the first sound in a word, saying "s-s-s-soda," or repeat the sound, as in "Sh-sh-she nice!" He may also open his mouth to say something, but get stuck before any sound comes out. Along with this "blocking," you may see tension in his jaw or cheeks, and he may look away or clench his fist from the tension.
AMICK HOLZMAN COMPANY Of Toluca Lake, California
Two videotapes about the stuttering therapy work of Joseph and Vivian Sheehan.
http://home.pacbell.net/amickith/index.html

Extractions: I am pleased to present the following reviews of two documentaries about stuttering that I produced with Allan Holzman, who directed and edited them: "No Words To Say" and "Joseph G. Sheehan's Message to a Stutterer." The reviews were published in the November, 1988 edition of the professional trade magazine for speech and language pathologists, ASHA. Thank you for your interest. Ron Amick, Producer ASHA JOURNAL DECEMBER 1988 - Reviews by Dr. Eugene B. Cooper "No Words To Say" begins with the simple printed message that people like Moses, Winston Churchill, and Marilyn Monroe stuttered and that about 1% of the world's population stutters. This message flows across the screen with the sound of a piano as background. Allan Holzman, the producer, director, photographer, and editor, then discusses his own stuttering problem and his desire to produce a film on stuttering. Holzman notes that while conducting research for the project he became aware of the stuttering therapy program that Joseph G. Sheehan conducted for 35 years at the University of California at Los Angeles until his death in 1983. The program continues under the direction of his wife Vivian.

Extractions: Stuttering is a communication disorder that affects a relatively small percentage of the population. Incidence is about 5%, with those persisting beyond childhood resulting in the 1% who stutter worldwide.

Valsalva Stuttering Network Home Page
Education and research about controlling stuttering (stammering) blocks by relaxing the body's Valsalva mechanism.
http://www.valsalva.org

Extractions: The Valsalva Stuttering Network Home Introduction Articles Links ... Forum Home Page Stuttering (or stammering) is often characterized by forceful closures or blocks in the mouth or larynx (either sustained or repetitive), as well as delays in phonation . There is growing evidence that these behaviors may be the result of the stutterer's instinctive activation of the body's Valsalva mechanism in an attempt to force out words when he or she anticipates difficulty or feels the need to use extra effort to speak properly. This possibility has been generally ignored by speech pathologists and is rarely addressed by current speech therapies. Because they aren't taught to control their Valsalva mechanism, many clients continue to have difficulty controlling their blocks and often relapse, without understanding why. The purpose of the Valsalva -S tuttering Network is to promote research and education about stuttering and the Valsalva mechanism and methods to reduce the Valsalva mechanism's interference with speech and other activities. The Valsalva-Stuttering Network welcomes everyone who has an interest in stuttering and/or the Valsalva mechanism, including persons who stutter, speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and other professionals, and researchers.

Start by calling your school district. Federal law requires that school speech pathologists treat children beginning at 3 years old. Treatment by your school district should be free. However, most speech pathologists are not trained to treat stuttering. Ask how much training and experience the speech pathologist has.

After a thorough examination, the doctor consulted with the patient. Doctor: "It appears that the reason for your stuttering is that your penis is about six inches too long and it is pulling on your vocal cords, thereby causing you this annoying problem of stuttering." Patient: "Ddddd octttor. Whhaaat cccan I dddo?" The doctor scratches his forehead, thinks for a minute and states that there is a procedure where we can free up the strain on the vocal cords by removing that six inches from the penis, freeing him from this horrible problem. The patient stuttering badly states that this problem has caused him so much embarrassment, as well as, loss of employment and that anything would be worth it. The doctor plans for the procedure. The operation is a success and six months later the patient comes in for his follow up.

http://www.parentpals.com/gossamer/pages/Detailed/632.html

Extractions: What do you do when your child tells you he was teased at school for his stuttering? Your first reaction might be to enroll him in a karate class! But, fighting back may not be the wisest response because it may only make matters worse. Growing up as a tomboy, my father encouraged me to beat up anyone that teased me when I stuttered. My father constantly recited, "Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you". He did the best he could, but the words did hurt me. I wish he had sat me down and talked about the issue of teasing and why people tease others. The first thing a parent can do is sit down with his child and talk about teasing. Many times children who stutter think they are the only ones in the whole wide world that get teased. Parents need to talk about their own experiences growing up, and how they themselves may have been teased . Remember, youngsters sometimes forget parents were kids once, too! If you weren't teased, maybe you can talk about other people who had been teased because they were too short, too tall, too fat, too skinny, or too shy, etc. The next thing that needs to be discussed is why children tease. The person who teases may be trying to hurt someone because he wants to see someone suffer. Consequently, the more the person being teased cries or gets upset, the more the teaser is likely to continue his taunting.
