Stuttering

2023-05-19 02:27:22
My son is 2.7 years old. Few months back he started stuttering. In start it was only few words but now it has increased a lot and he feels hesitant to speak and speaks only few words. When he tries to speak he could not complete the whole word and just repeats the few syllables. He tries but could not complete the words. Is it normal or we need to see someone?

Please visit a speech therapist. Most children outgrow this on their own. But better to take help as it affects self confidence
