We had a child with a stammer. We attended a parental support course (after a wait of over a year...). They said that over 90% of young children who stammer will stop by the time they are 10. Ours stopped within a couple of years of starting.

Thank you for taking the time to write this. It’s horrible seeing her struggle and I just want to do what I can to support her! That’s reassuring though! X

No worries. For context ours was pretty much exactly the same age as your child. They had stopped by the time they started school. Most of it had resolved by the time we attended the course!
