Q. I keep stuttering.

A.

It's common for children aged 2-5 to experience developmental stuttering, where their speech cannot keep up with the speed of their thoughts. Attempting to correct them with phrases like 'Speak slowly' or 'Try again' can lead to a speech phobia. Instead, simply focus on the content of what your child is saying and listen.
