Speech features of stuttering children

To understand the nature of stuttering, it is important to clarify the speech characteristics of children who stutter. The level of development of language skills in stuttering children is almost the same as in normal-speaking children. They determine the reactions of individual characteristics to the influence of various situational factors. Research on the speech characteristics of stuttering children shows that they have difficulty using the means of communication in the communicative processes of speech, despite the richness of vocabulary and the ability to compose sentences. Stuttering is one of the most common speech disorders caused by convulsions in the muscles of the speech apparatus, and stuttering should be eliminated immediately when it occurs. Otherwise, it will get worse and worse over time and can do great damage to the child's mental development.
