Some things to focus on to help your child speak more easily: Easy talking, reduced pace and time pressures, repeat and rephrase

From the Stuttering Center of Western Pennsylvania.  Stuttering occurs when a child has difficulty producing smooth, flowing speech.  Stuttering appears to be related to many different but related causes, and a child's tendency to be disfluent in a given situation can be triggered by a wide variety of factors.  

My experience as a grief counselor has taught me that all too often caregivers-in-training want to rush into learning "techniques" to help children before they have even explored their own personal encounters with grief.

You need stress in your life!  Does that surprise you?  Perhaps so, but it is quite true.  WIthout stress, life wiould be dull and unexciting.  Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life.  Too much stress, however, can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being.  

The death of a child is a unique grief experience.  Parents always expect to outlive their children and naturally feel a responsibility to protect them.
