My 4 year old seems to have developed a stutter pretty much overnight. She has always been super clever, saying words and phrases way above her age expectancy. She’s occasionally stuttered before when she gets excited but nothing major. Now the last couple of weeks it’s very significant and it’s started to upset her. I was going to wait until she starts school in a couple of weeks and see if she’s any different in that environment, or should I be speaking to someone now before it potentially gets worse?
I have split with her dad in the last year and she has started asking me about it a bit more recently, could this possibly be why she’s started stuttering? As like an anxiety thing?
