What causes stuttering/Stammering?
There are multiple possible causes of stuttering. Some include:
🔸 Family history of stuttering
🔸 Family dynamics
🔸Neurophysiology
🔸 Development during childhood
🔸Brain injuries from a stroke can cause neurogenic stuttering. Severe emotional trauma can cause psychogenic stuttering.
Stuttering may run in families because of an inherited abnormality in the part of the brain that governs language.
If you or your parents stuttered, your children may also stutter.
