Stuttering is characterized by the American Speech and Hearing Association as, “disruptions of the production of speech sounds, also called disfluencies.”

A child may have a stutter if they have difficulty speaking or demonstrates hesitation or repitition of syllables, words, or phrases. Or, a child could simply be going through a normal phase in development as their language repertoire expands and they learn to talk.
