speech issues can be tricky, but do not worry there is a lot that can be done to support a child with speech therapy and also having a screen for anxiety.
Speech therapy is a great benefit to those that stutter. The reason for stuttering is different for everyone and is often coupled with treatment from a licensed mental health therapist as anxiety has been found to often time tie closely to stuttering.
speech therapy or psychotherapy can help - stuttering usually goes away by itself
There is no cure for true stuttering. Children can start to stutter when very young or be perceived to stutter, then recover but this is really more of a development process rather than true stuttering. If by age 6 your child is still "stutter" or you are concerned that it could be true stuttering, it's best to have your child evaluated.
