Now she speaks normal?

Hey! Don't say that! You matter! Please don't give up, God loves you! and I'm rooting for you, please just try to be positive and trust God, I promise everything will get better!!

because of the lisp? there are perhaps reasons to do that but lisp is a dumb reason

Think u might be on the wrong video but thanks

you should get better at tolerating things that make you even MILDLY uncomfortable in your own skin

@daveyjoseph6058 like the way you should have learned to tolerate my reply to the video?

@@missmouse20 What makes you think I can't tolerate it? You are the only one here with an issue of acceptance. I've already accepted sharing the earth with insecure bullies. Long before you even knew you were one. Smile more, nobody will do it for you. Unless you actually somehow enjoy the stench of negativity

@@daveyjoseph6058 ad hominen Bro, you continue to dig a deeper hole for yourself

@@missmouse20 no way you’re liking your own comments and reporting mine 😂

My child is 13, he has this problem, I blame myself because I didn't have patience with him 😔😔😔, I'm sorry now. And I don't know how can I help him. He stay away alone in the school and he don't speak with any one, he is afraid to speak with children or in the class because the people leave or lough to him . I m soooory for my English.i try to explain.can you help me please. Can .

Yes, traumatic event may cause a child to move his attention from speaking to thinking. As the result of such destruction of focus, his speech organ gets stuck naturally.

@@nechnech1745 All you need is to be a role model of a perfect speech for your child. Just make sure he is watching you speak with your mouth and IMITATE your perfect speech!

I would love more information about this, is there a way to contact you? Thanks!

Only a few people really know and understand the fact that root and natural herbs are the best remedy to cure any diseases or disorder completely . Thanks to Doctor isibor alternative herbs which helped me overcame stammering I’m glad his herb works and I’m happy that my stammering is not a thing of the past

8o% of children will grow out of their stutter. If you want to find the cause, find a good Hypnotherapist in your area. .

@@randallscott1643 when you say grow out you mean that the eye closing repeating and stretching one sound just goes away?

Thank you for messaging. This is an important distinction - the fact that she tenses up and closes her eyes when there is a moment of stuttering. This behavior is usually NOT part of a "developmental stutter." There are many factors that suggest if a stutter is "developmental" or a stutter that is likely to continue. These are age, family history, how long the child has been stuttering, if it is getting worse and other factors. Since this behavior MAY imply she is getting worse, I would recommend speaking with a speech therapist in your area to determine if an evaluation is warranted.

My daughter is the exact same!! Extremely articulate, she just started to stutter, and then once it got better, it got a million times worse. When she's mindlessly speaking, it's not there, but when she seems more intentional about what she's saying, I hear the repetitive sounds. She's a very mindful child, so I hear it often.

You are very welcome.

The difference between an S and Z is the activation/vibration of the vocal folds. Saying an S sound keeps the vibration off and a Z sound turns them on. This is also the main difference between a K and G, and a P and B. A speech therapist can help you identify what the issue is and how to work on fixing it.

@@therapyworkstogether thanks

There is a phoneme that is its own classification like in the middle of the word “measure”. Its the /zh/ (this unvouced ‘sh’ now voiced ‘zh’).

You are NOT cursed, but perhaps you need some extra help from a speech therapist who has a trained ear. They may be able to determine what the "extra 10%" difference between a correct S sound and a lateral lisp sound. Lastly, it may be an oral structure issue (e.g., a smaller oral cavity) but that can only be determined with an exam (in person or online) by a trained speech therapist.

Maybe its different sounds (besides s). Sh, ch, zh, tr, dr. You may need to individualize your practice to each phoneme.

You may want to consider working with a speech therapist for a few sessions and then practicing at home on your own.

TwT can be contacted by going to the site: www.therapyworkstogether.com Thank you!

Depending on the work you have done so far, it may be an improvement but both sides (of the tongue) should be stable and fixed so that air flow is coming out of the front and not the sides.

​@@therapyworkstogetherSo doing the "t" to an "s" can help me fix this?Thank you for replying

@@Bob_7542 it can also be a matter of needing jaw or tongue stabalization during speech production. So perhaps working with a speech therapist for a few sessions and then practicing at home would help.

I am so glad that this helped!

I'm a singer with a lateral lisp for sh, ch, and j,,, it's never been a problem in normal speech, but it always comes up when I'm singing,,,, I'm glad you're able to help her with this

You are welcome! We believe parents are the best coaches for their kids :)

Thank you for your question. Importantly first, for a lateral lisp, is where the air flow is coming out. When the "s" sound is pronounced, does the air flow out of the sides of your mouth or the front? If it's out the sides, work on that first. If it is out of the front, you can start by working on decreasing the "s" sound when you read aloud. To decrease overpronouncing the sound when you read aloud, first practice with simple single words. when your pronunciation is accurate, move to short phrases. When the phrases are accurate move on to longer sentences like when reading a book. Increase the level of complexity but only when accuracy for simple tasks are correct.

@@therapyworkstogether9763 i have now completely conquered my lisp after 34 years. wild.

@@JG-mc7kr This is wonderful! It is never too late :) Great work.

@@JG-mc7krI am in the same position as you, how did you get rid of your lisp?

​@@Anil75987 read outloud, record yourself and watch it back. the "tttt" to "sss" technique should be all you need

Hi, and thanks so much for your comment! Sometimes techniques and research changes (even in speech therapy), so we know now how to help those with a lateral lisp. Going back to speech therapy would help teach you the skills and then practice them. The most important part is to practice at home - often! Self practice is what helps make the most difference. I understand you getting self conscious ... and of course, when you are excited and speak faster, there is less time to coordinate the movements of your tongue so a lisp may become more apparent. See if you can find a therapist in your area to help you get started and help you get to the next level.

I have never been told how to make the s sound correctly, just that I was doing it wrong. I never knew where my tongue was supposed to be. It's going to be really hard to go retrain myself. Is there spray therapy for adults?

Hi, thank you for reaching out. A lateral lisp and other speech issues can make people very self conscious and the feelings around this issue are difficult to deal with. These feelings can have an impact on our self confidence. A lateral lisp is difficult to fix on your own. It is recommended to speak with a parent about this (since you are under 18) and get help from a trained speech therapist. A lateral lisp does not go away on its own. You should feel wonderful about yourself even with the lisp! We know this is hard to understand, but you are wonderful the way you are!

same here🙁i’m 17 and i’ve struggled with one my whole life, for years i’ve refused to say words with s sounds in infront of anyone because i don’t want them to know that i have one, but now i’m really panicking because i have a presentation at college soon

see i had it too till the 15th of my age and i have dealt with samw things that you all did. Getting mocked by friends relatives etc. But lateral lisp isn't because of abnormality in your mouth structure it is just the way you speak. I am 17 now and now i have got rid of it Some tips:- use a straw just to get used to the air flow which shouldn't be from the side of your mouth Notice people actors and try to learn the way they speak If you watchinh a movie try to say things the way they do. Don't loose hopes it would get better in a month or two . Be consistent 💪🏻

@@harshalnerikar4650 It wonderful that you found a strategy that works for you, and that you consistently used it. It is important to stay a confident communicator.

@@harshalnerikar4650 how long did it take to get rid of it im 17 now I know the issue with my lisp is the air flow that is being directed sideways

Hello, By 14 one should be pronouncing all sounds without a lisp (although it is also a personal choice if to remedy). Speech sounds at this age are no longer maturing. If you are under 18, it is recommended to seek advice from a speech therapist after speaking with your parent or guardian.

Its free to get therapy in schools, once done with school it may or may not be covered.

Hello, thank you for your comment. This is a sound substitution that is not necessarily classified as a lisp. It would be best to consult with a speech therapist to determine how to treat this.
