My child stutters. Can you help me?

The second edition of Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy includes an entire section specially written for the parents of a stuttering child.

Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy is written in plain English and describes the complexity of stuttering in simple words. It will help you understand stuttering and will give you an insight of the inner feelings your child has about his speech difficulties. Understanding stuttering and your child's feelings will make it easier for you to effectively help your child to become fluent.

Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy also describes what the parents can do to positively influence the way their child speaks through direct and indirect therapeutic approaches. These therapeutic approaches are easy to implement and should help to enhance your child's fluency.
 

Is it my fault if my child stutters?

No, it’s not your fault if your child stutters. Nobody knows for sure what triggers stuttering but studies indicate that stuttering is not caused by the way the child is reared by his parents.

This of course doesn’t mean that you cannot do anything about your child’s stuttering. As explained above, you can positively influence your child and help him develop fluent speech by following the simple steps described in Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy.

One of my family members stutters. What should I do?

Maybe you already discussed stuttering with your family member. This is an important step in the right direction.

Or maybe you never mentioned stuttering and everybody in the family pretends that stuttering is not really happening. You would probably like to discuss stuttering with your family member but you are afraid to take the first step. Your family member probably also wishes to break the silence but is too embarrassed by his speech problem to take the initiative.

A stutterer doesn't really want to be left alone with his problem and you should find a way to openly discuss this frustrating problem. If you don't feel comfortable talking about stuttering with your family member, you might want to read Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy first. It will help you understand stuttering as well as his/her inner feelings, frustrations, fears and behaviors. After reading Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy, you  will be in a better position to understand your family member, talk with him/her and help him/her in his/her fight against stuttering.

How long will it take before I become fluent?

No two stutterers are alike and it is difficult to predict how long you will need to become fluent. You might start noticing dramatic improvements a few days after you start the therapy and become fluent one or two months later. Or you might have to wait a couple of months before you can notice the first signs of improvement and your fluency will then gradually improve month by month.

One thing is sure: stuttering cannot be durably controlled overnight. You probably have been stuttering for many years or decades and stuttering is now deeply rooted inside you. Whatever therapy you choose, it will take at least a few weeks before you become fluent.

Will Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy cure my stuttering?

No, Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy will not cure your stuttering. Stuttering is not a disease and therefore cannot be cured. Stuttering is a condition that, with the help of adequate stuttering therapy, can be successfully controlled. Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy, as its name implies, is a therapy and is designed to help you control stuttering.
 

Do you offer a Money-back Guarantee?

Yes we do. The enthusiastic feedback we are receiving suggests that many stutterers who read Comprehensive Stuttering Therapy found it extremely useful to help them control their stuttering. However, it is impossible to guarantee that an approach that works for one stutterer works for all stutterers. If, for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase we will gladly refund your money. Click here to find the details of our refund policy
