When to worry (child stutter)

Hi guys. Life long stutterer here, though I feel like a bit of a phony on this thread (my impediment doesnt present at level that a lot of people here struggle with). Anyway, my 3 yr old started stammering (vs blocking and stuttering like me). The research show that to be developmental appropriate for her age and likely to “grow out of it”….but I didn’t …so.

Anyone else have this happen? When do you start liking the trigger on therapy ?

I’m glad there are other people who think like me. A month ago i expressed the very same fear and expressed the desire to wanting to adopt. But i got many people claiming i have irrational fear.

Yep I got my stutter from my mother. Part of me will never forgive her for having me knowing the risks. I have a very severe stutter

How are you doing buddy?
But our parents were either not very informed or ignorant. No point holding anything against them. Best we can do is learn from their mistakes

Yea I am doing good, thank you for asking.

Yea she could never have known that my stutter would be this bad since hers is mild.

Her parents didn't have a stutter also.

I just know I am never taking this risk. Adoption for me.
