Counseling Parents of Children Who Stutter

To create a verbal environment that facilitates children's speech fluency, parents of children who stutter may need to rely on suggestions from speech-language pathologists. However, it appears that implementing changes in these parent-child verbal interactions is not the only area in which counseling is needed. Parents also need to discuss a number of concerns, apart from those specifically related to verbal interactions with the children, to help parents understand and adapt to the unique problems associated with children's stuttering. The purpose of this article is to combine a broad overview of several basic counseling principles with information about specific areas of concern that these parents often present to speech-language pathologists. These concerns are organized into three areas: (a) emotional and behavioral parental responses, (b) parental concerns about "talking about talking," and (c) parental responses to and concerns about the treatment process.
