Summary:
This booklet is written for French speaking parents who have young
children than may stutter. The goal of the booklet is to enable
parents to begin working with their child, and a speech clinician if
necessary, with a better understanding of the problem. The booklet is
designed to answer to common parental questions such as: (1) Does my
child stutter? (2) Why do some children stutter? and (3) How does the
child who stutters compare with those who do not? Warning signs of
children who may have a stuttering problem are discussed. The major
portion of the booklet contains suggestions for working with a
stuttering child which address ways to effect smoother speech,
effective speech interactions, nonverbal communication, ways to
express positive feelings, and ways in which day-to-day living may
affect or be affected by stuttering. Suggestions for encouraging
better fluency include accepting the disfluencies; avoiding the
stuttering label; reducing parental anxiety; reducing time pressure
for the child's speech, reacting appropriately to stuttering; giving
precise, non-threatening advice on reducing stuttering; and reducing
the child's fears, anxieties, and frustrations with speech. (CB)
