Causes of stuttering in children. We donât really know why stuttering happens. It might be because thereâs an error or delay in the message that a childâs brain sends to the muscles of her mouth when she needs to speak. This error or delay makes it hard for the child to coordinate her mouth muscles when sheâs talking, which results in stuttering.
If your child's stuttering lasts for more than six months, or if he tenses his jaw or grimaces while trying to speak. If so, he may be referred to a speech therapist. Bear in mind it's perfectly normal for your child to sound as though he's stuttering if he trips up on his words in his excitement to communicate.
