It happens like this: one fine day, for no apparent reason, your two or three-year-old toddler begins to say something strange: “I don’t, I don’t want porridge!”. The heart becomes anxious, because each of us has come across people who stutter, we can imagine the limitations that this disease imposes on normal verbal communication. And yet, there is no need to panic. Stuttering is very often confused with the so-called "stuttering" (physiological iterations), even speech therapists who have worked for more than one year. Both the one and the other speech deficiency are very similar in manifestations: they are related by the disturbed rhythm of speech. It is necessary to be able to distinguish between stuttering and stammering, because the content of the correctional work will depend on this.

Stuttering- this is a violation of the pace and rhythm of speech in the convulsive state of the muscles of the speech apparatus. Convulsions are of different localization: vocal, articulatory, respiratory.

Physiological stumbles (iterations)- a common phenomenon in the speech of children 2-5 years old, which requires a different correction than stuttering and usually occurs when the development of the baby's thinking is ahead of his speech capabilities. Often accompanied by good development, both mental and physical. There is a high risk of stammering in emotional, very developed, impressionable children. Usually mothers start to panic, expecting the worst - stuttering. Remember that stuttering has nothing to do with stuttering. However, if you do not pay attention to the repetitions of syllables and words in speech in time and do not take preventive measures, then the risk of stuttering is quite high.

As soon as you hear "stumbling" in your baby's speech, try to determine whether it is a stutter or a stutter.

1. When hesitation, as a rule, there are no cramps in the mouth, neck, etc. as opposed to stuttering.
2. Pay attention to how the child reacts to requests to speak better, slower, smoother. If the baby has a stutter, then his speech after this request will only get worse, and the baby with stutters will get better. Stutterers are characterized by a painful fixation on their defect, and this leads to an additional deterioration in speech.

3. Analyze the reasons for the "unexpected" violation of the rhythm of speech in a child. The roots of the baby's problem with hesitation go to the area of ​​emotions, features of the nervous system, problems of parent-child relationships; hesitation is often a symptom of neurosis. It happens that they appear when the child is especially tense (says something long, new, difficult), excited, etc. Some of the kids at such moments begin to wind their hair on their fingers, bite their nails, even blush, and the children stutteringly begin to repeat the first syllables or words. Stuttering, on the other hand, is a neurological problem and is more difficult to correct than stuttering. It is believed that stuttering is always of hereditary origin (great-grandfather could stutter, and his great-grandson was given a predisposition to stuttering).

If the originality of speech does not disappear for two to three weeks and even tends to worsen, it's time to take action. Visit a speech therapist and psychoneurologist. Both will help with the diagnosis, that is, they will reveal stuttering (sometimes called logoneurosis). A neuropsychiatrist will prescribe medications that make sense to take if the baby really has moderate or severe stuttering. For stuttering, medication is not needed, except in situations where they were caused by severe stress. When correcting stutters, do the following:

• We consult and work with a child psychologist. The psychologist will help eliminate the cause of hesitation. Various methods of child psychotherapy help well: fairy tale therapy, sand therapy, art therapy. Check if the psychologist has certificates of completion of advanced training courses in these areas of psychocorrection.
• We work with a speech therapist. The speech therapist in a playful way teaches the child the techniques of breathing exercises, relaxation, and control over the fluency of speech.
• We offer relaxing massages.
• We spend a lot of time in the water. It is best if you take the child to the pool, but in case of physical weakness, regular water games at home are quite suitable. There is such a rule: the more excitable the baby, the more water he needs.

When correcting stuttering, do this:

• We visit and implement all the recommendations of a psychoneurologist.
• We are engaged with a speech therapist regularly and systematically. Stuttering has an unpleasant feature to return, especially against the background of stress. So, having eliminated stuttering before school, you need to be especially careful when the baby goes to grade 1. School adaptation and the neuro-emotional stress associated with this can provoke a speech disorder.
• We conduct a course of relaxing massage, and not just one.
• We are working with a psychologist.

Tips for parents every day.

You should reconsider your behavior in relation to raising a baby: excessive demands, alienation, criticism, ridicule, irritation - all this can provoke hesitation.

• Watch how fast or slowly you speak to the child and how loudly: if hesitations appear, then you need to speak quieter and slower.
• Convince yourself: hesitation is not a sentence, but a symptom of a deeper problem, usually of a psychological and pedagogical nature. If you worry too much, then the baby, looking at you, will literally intuitively feel: “Something is wrong with me”; nervous tension grows.
• Make especially serious demands on the regime of the day. Limit TV viewing and computer games up to 15-20 minutes a day.
• Before going to bed, turn on quiet instrumental music, processing of classics for children. Such musical compositions have a good psychotherapeutic effect.

• If your baby began to stutter due to intellectual overload, for example, at an early development school, then you need to “slow down” educational process. Let the baby do nothing for a month or two, beat the thumbs, do nothing.

• In no case should the attention of the child be fixed on the originality of his speech. That is why it is better not to require him to repeat the word correctly and in general to give any assessment to the statements. If the child begins to stutter a lot during the conversation, just tell him: "Let's try to sing this word" or: "Let's say this word in a whisper." Show him how it's done. There are usually no stutters when using these techniques.

• When communicating with a child with hesitation, let him feel that no one is in a hurry to say that everyone will always wait for the end of his thought. This means that you don’t need to push him when answering, or suggest a word, don’t use impatient gestures. Wait silently while he picks up the words and the correct grammatical form for the statement.

Stuttering is a violation of speech, which is manifested by a disorder of its rhythm, involuntary stops during utterance, repetition of certain sounds and syllables, as a result of which oral communication is difficult. For most, speech is a matter of course. But a stuttering person daily faces certain difficulties in communication, since rhythmic, precise, clear conversation is not available to him.

Stuttering is the result of the fact that the muscles of the speech apparatus (lips, tongue, lower jaw, vocal cords, soft palate) are periodically reduced. If these convulsions are short-lived, the child involuntarily repeats individual sounds or syllables. Strong and prolonged muscle spasms lead to speech delay. There are cases when both types of disorders are combined.

In a healthy person, interruptions (repetition of individual words or phrases, use of the sounds "uh", "mmm") make up from seven to ten percent of speech. If the number of stops exceeds ten percent, this is considered stuttering.

Causes of stuttering

Usually, stuttering occurs in children from two to five years old, because it is at this age that the formation of a child’s speech takes place. Due to its “youth”, speech activity is the most vulnerable and fragile among other mental processes. Therefore, any load on the child's nervous system directly or indirectly affects it. Small children are distinguished by the absence of stable inhibitory reactions, they are easily excited, which can lead to spasms, including spasms of the speech organs, i.e. to stuttering.

The causes of stuttering are divided into:

1. physiological;
2. psychological;
3. social.

Physiological reasons include diseases of the nervous system, the consequences of a difficult pregnancy, birth trauma, and hereditary predisposition. In some cases, stuttering occurs due to an organic violation of the subcortical regions of the brain. Often, speech problems are associated with diseases of the articulatory organs (nose, pharynx, larynx) or appear as a result of depletion of the nervous system after suffering rickets, typhoid, whooping cough, measles.

Outwardly, children whose causes of stuttering are of a physiological nature very often look healthy and smart. However, as a result of a neurological examination, they have increased intracranial pressure and convulsive readiness, a change in reflexes. Stuttering in this case is called neurosis-like or organic.

In addition to physiological reasons, the underlying cause of the appearance of stuttering can be a psycho-emotional shock. A kind of trigger mechanism is external stimuli, such as fear, severe emotional experiences, conflict situations.

Stuttering is often associated with fear.

A car collision, a fire, an animal attack, drowning, a loud cry, and even a tale about a terrible Baba Yaga can cause disruptions in a baby's speech. To be or not to be stuttering in this case depends entirely on the state of the nervous system and the strength of the stress factor.

In addition to physiological and psychological reasons there are social causes that can cause speech disorders even in children with a healthy and strong nervous system. If parents have given too little time to the formation of the child's speech activity, he may begin to stutter.

Sometimes the cause of speech disorders is the excessive severity of parents in relation to their child. And if there is a stuttering person among the baby’s environment, the baby can begin to imitate, copying the speech with all the shortcomings present in it. Some children become stutterers for life as a result of being left-handed to right-handed. Stuttering caused by psychological or social causes is called neurotic stuttering or logoneurosis.

Overcoming stuttering in a child

In the fight against stuttering, the main principle is the rule "the sooner the better." Being a stutterer is a serious test for a baby, since speech disorders not only prevent them from expressing their own thoughts and feelings, but also interfere with communicating with peers. It is advisable to start speech correction with the appearance of the first signs, doing everything possible to eliminate stuttering before school.

Currently, the most effective is a comprehensive method of overcoming stuttering, structurally consisting of two parts:

1. health-improving measures contribute to the normalization of neuropsychic processes, the improvement of the child's nervous system;
2. correctional and educational activities include the principles of behavior with a stuttering baby, as well as special exercises to develop and consolidate the correct speech skills.

Therapeutic and recreational activities

If your child develops stuttering, see a doctor. After a comprehensive medical examination, specialists will find out the causes and determine the type of violation. Further actions of doctors and parents will depend on this.

If it turns out that the baby suffers from logoneurosis, then the main specialist for your child will be a child psychologist. He will acquaint the little patient with exercises to relieve muscle and mental tension, help to increase emotional stability crumbs to stress. In addition, a child psychologist will teach parents how to effectively interact with their child, taking into account the characteristics of his nervous system, and will help in choosing the best educational measures. Another doctor that parents will have to contact is a neurologist. This specialist will select medications aimed at calming and relieving muscle spasms in a child.

Cooperation with a speech pathologist-defectologist is necessary in the case of organic stuttering, since this type of speech disorder is more in need of speech therapy assistance. Classes with a specialist should be regular and last at least a year. The main goal of a speech pathologist is to teach a child to speak correctly. But even in this case, dynamic observation by a neurologist and long-term drug treatment will be required.

Regardless of the type of stuttering, parents play an important role in improving the baby's nervous system. The task is to create a calm, favorable environment for the child, to prevent grief, to instill cheerfulness in the baby.

Compliance with a rational regime, the alternation of vigorous activity and rest, sleep regulation - all this helps to establish the work of the whole organism of the child in general and the nervous system in particular. Be sure to provide time for various games and walks in the fresh air.

A stuttering child needs a varied, fortified and high-calorie diet. He should eat four times a day, at the same time, according to the established regimen.

Hardening procedures have an extremely beneficial effect on the health of the baby. Bathing, dousing, rubbing, walking and sledding, physical exercises- all this contributes to the healing and strengthening of the child's body, helping step by step to overcome stuttering.

Correctional and educational activities

To begin with, parents need to understand the basic rules of behavior and communication with a stuttering child in everyday life.

So, what to do if the child stutters:

1. always let the baby finish speaking;
2. you can’t stop the child, ask him to start talking again, take a deep breath, slow down his speech;
3. it is necessary to remain calm, not to show irritation or impatience;
4. you can’t help picking up words, finishing a phrase for the baby;
5. do not lose eye contact with the baby during the conversation, do not turn away from him;
6. you need to show that you can not only hear, but also listen, repeating the words of the child in the process of dialogue.

Taking into account these rules, you can proceed directly to correctional and educational activities. The program of classes should take into account the needs, hobbies, interests of the child as much as possible. In other words, speech correction should be carried out in natural conditions for the baby. You can not force the baby to do any exercises.

A stuttering child should be dealt with regularly. Performing corrective exercises with him, parents need to monitor speech and help to speak correctly. In this case, you can not focus on the speech defect of the baby.

The basic principle of classes is from the familiar to the unfamiliar, from the simple to the complex.

Starting with the simplest situational exercises, it is necessary to come to a detailed statement. This task is not easy, and success accompanies parents who will not be stopped by the first failures of their child.

Here are some exercises used to overcome stuttering in children.

• Logorhythmic exercises combine movement and conversation. For example, a baby walks around the room and claps his hands, uttering funny chants like “We are top-top with our legs, we are clap-clap with our hands.”
• Exercises with subject pictures. Choose pictures with the simplest names of objects. Stretching, pronounce the names: "machine", "kneeiga", "dog". Let the baby repeat the words in the same way. Then you need to complicate the task using plot pictures (“the car is driving”, “the book is upaaala”, “the dog is barking”).

Hi all! As usual, Andrey Dobrodeev is with you and today we are analyzing the topic: “The child began to stutter, what should I do?”

I didn’t write for a very long time (almost a week), I was busy with household chores.)))

Well, I'll talk about this some other time, but now let's get closer to the topic.

To get started, I suggest you take one small test:

Speak the word loudly and clearly: "Streptococcus".

Well, how did it happen? Were you able to clearly and distinctly pronounce this word? Well then you have no problem with stuttering! But if you couldn't, be sure to read my article to the very end!

As usual, let's break the article into sections:

1. Types of stuttering.
2. What is stuttering?
3. Why stuttering occurs?
4. ?
5. Results, recommendations, tips!

Types of stuttering.

There are three types of stuttering:

1. Clonic type of stuttering (repeating) - when a person (child) repeats a letter. Example: "Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma". In this case, there is a repetition of some sounds.

2. Tonic type of stuttering - a person cannot start speaking (start with a word). He might say "Mmmm" followed by a pause in speech and then "Mom".

3. Clonic-tonic (a more complex mixed form of stuttering) - when, along with repetition, there are pauses between pronunciation.

What is stuttering?

Stuttering belongs to the category of diseases called logo neuroses.

Most often they appear in children when they begin to talk, somewhere between the ages of 2 and 3 years (this is the beginning or first period).

The second period can occur in adolescents from 12 to 15 years. And during these periods, you need to be kind to such children (reading further you will find out what I mean).

So why does stuttering occur?

I just want to say that fear does not cause stuttering! These are all inventions! And here's why stuttering really occurs now I'll tell you in more detail:

Stuttering can be organic. Everyone knows that our brain is responsible for the movement of various parts of the body, as well as for their control. So, a huge part of the brain is responsible for the lips and tongue (centers and zones of speech formation). The first problem of speech impairment can be associated with a stroke (this is in adults).

The main cause of stuttering in children is a delay in the development of the speech center!

Children may experience the first period of stuttering due to the fact that these centers and zones of speech formation, which are responsible for the coordination of this speech, have not yet matured (late maturation of these zones), so you need to correctly approach the understanding and treatment of the child, then you will quickly compensate this problem.

We all know that our brain has two hemispheres, left and right. The center of speech is in the left hemisphere (this is for right-handers) and if the center of speech is not formed, then right hemisphere will interfere with the left, thanks to this, the children stutter.

The task of teachers, parents - if a child has stuttering, do not torment him by memorizing poems and reading books, translate everything into a written format!

Many, probably, thought now that stuttering should be treated with some kind of medicine. I'm right? And it is, but...

Stuttering is treated with drugs not immediately and not always, and in many cases they do without drugs!

I hope that you watched the video and now you have at least a little idea how to help your child! And now I would like to give you a couple of recommendations.

If you notice that your child has begun to stutter, then contact several specialists. Yes, yes, just a few!

1. Neurologist - will determine the causes of stuttering!

2. Psychiatrist and psychologist - get recommendations and useful advice from them!

3. Defectologist-speech therapist - he is engaged in the elimination of speech defects!

Pass these specialists and you will be in all weapons!

This concludes the first part of the article, good health to you, my dear readers!

Of all the neuroses and neurosis-like disorders, it is one of the most complex. It is difficult to find two similar stutterers: each stutters in his own way, and the vast majority suffer greatly. A sudden fright is the cause of the problem only half the time. In another 15% of cases, heredity is to blame. Everything else is the unfavorable neuro-emotional circumstances in which it occurs. In other words, a sudden fright will cause stuttering only in that child, who has certain prerequisites for impaired speech function and whose psyche has previously been constantly injured (for example, scandals of parents, a generally nervous situation in the family). Stuttering is considered to be a childhood disease, because in up to % of cases it begins in early childhood- Between the ages of two and five. But the "childhood illness" most often continues throughout life, although there are even cases of self-healing. Sometimes you have to hear from adults that their stuttering went away on its own. It is much less common that stuttering was "cured by such and such a specialist." This speaks precisely of the complex nature of the disorder.

The boys are out of luck!

They stutter four times more often than girls. American experts explain this by the fact that boys are more mobile, energetic, active and inquisitive, and therefore they are much more likely to fall into all sorts of psycho-traumatic situations. However, this is not the only thing. If we check the ratio of neuropsychiatric pathology in childhood, if only by the number of psychiatric departments in hospitals, it turns out that there are again three to four times more men's departments than women's departments. This means that the reason, rather, is in certain features of the development of the male neuropsychic sphere, its less resistance to various negative influences. There is another reason for the greater prevalence of stuttering (and nervousness in general) in boys. Traditionally, it is believed that future men should be treated more strictly than girls; various hugs, “lisping”, kisses are not encouraged in communicating with them. Therefore, they have more nervous breakdowns. Girls are raised in an atmosphere of greater love and tenderness (in normal families, of course). Therefore, they have a more stable psyche and a better developed motor sphere (boys, as a rule, are more angular and clumsy in childhood).

Early start

Usually everything starts at the age of two to five years, because at this time speech function is only developing. Speech is the most complex and young function of living nature. The whole complex of pathologies at an early age nests precisely in the speech-motor analyzer. For the sake of objectivity, it must be admitted: stuttering does not always occur in babies who grow up in families where parents violently sort things out (scaring the child). Quite often, this neuropsychiatric disease occurs in children who are raised as family idols. A child who is allowed everything grows, as they say, "without brakes." And when he gets into a situation where he has to behave “not as you want, but as expected” (for example, he gets into Kindergarten), his psyche can not stand it. A pariah child—unwanted, unloved, superfluous—is another likely candidate for stutterers. He is constantly "not allowed". Such a child is likely to have problems with the psyche, and stuttering will turn out to be a "makeweight" that will complicate the already difficult life of a little man. There are, according to Drapkin, just unloved children who are taken care of, fulfilling their parental duty, but ... not loving. And true affection is felt without words. Disliked children often develop a neurosis - speech, as the most vulnerable function, is disturbed.

Wrong reception

Parents often scare kids for educational purposes - “if you behave badly, a policeman will come and take you away”, “if you don’t obey, I’ll give you to that gypsy”. Thus, a phobic mood is artificially formed. A case is known when a large dog rushed to a five-year-old girl (fortunately, did not bite), knocked her down and began to bark loudly. In the presence of a phobia, this could cause fear and even stuttering, but the baby only laughed: she thought that the dog was playing with her. Of course, this does not mean that children cannot be warned against dangers by telling them about some situations in advance. But to intimidate with "gypsies", "monsters" or something like that - by no means!

If parents stutter

It seems incredible, but true: stuttering adults involuntarily begin to speak almost normally in the presence of children. Therefore, parents who stutter can literally be required: during the period of formation of speech in your children, speak yourself as best as possible. Remember that in children the formation of speech follows the mechanism of active imitation. (Strange but true: stuttering parents begin to pronounce words more slowly, follow the speech.) If for some reason they have problems with speech (for example, during a quarrel or when they are very excited), they should be advised to control themselves and try not to talk like that in front of the child. The easiest way out is to go to the kitchen or another room.

Imitation

There is another interesting mechanism stuttering. This is also an imitation.

Children in and lower grades of school often tease stutterers. But speech at this age, as already mentioned, is only being formed and the function is very vulnerable. Mimicking another, the child himself can start stuttering, because "teasers" are always pronounced for a reason, but very emotionally! As a result, the offender may begin convulsive imitations in speech apparatus. The sad result: he teased, teased and ... he began to stutter. There is only one prevention here: a belt (figuratively speaking, of course). So that it was disrespectful to tease! Explain to the bully: stuttering is not a vice, this can happen to anyone, including him.

There are also situations

There are two children growing up in the family. The elder stutters. His parents pity him, caress him more. And the second child suddenly has a stutter! He thinks: “Stuttering doesn’t hurt at all, but how many indulgences you get!” - the mechanism of imitation is turned on. Hence the golden rule: if there are two children in a family, especially of the same age, then no matter what they do, both are always right. And both are always to blame. You can’t spoil one child in the presence of another, even if for some reason you feel “more sorry” for the second one.

From the article you will learn all about the most effective methods of treating stuttering in children.

Sometimes it happens that for no apparent reason, a son or daughter begins to have speech problems. Usually, parents begin to worry, panic and torment the child with unnecessary questions.

But you don’t need to do this, because absolutely every doctor will tell you that with the right treatment this problem can be solved. All you need for this is time and patience.

Jeanne: Singing helped my son very well. At first he was shy and we had to sing songs together, but over time he liked it so much that it was impossible to listen again. Now we have no problems, but we do not stop singing.
Ksyusha: Our stuttering began after a child was bitten by a very small dog. But he was so scared that he didn't even want to sleep in his own room. So in addition to a speech therapist, we also had to turn to a psychologist.
