1. Your child is repeating words, sounds or syllables

2. Your child gets stuck (has blocks) and the sound is not coming out of their mouth

3. Your child doesn’t want to talk because every time they try to say something the words get stuck or repeated.

4. Your child sounds as if they have inhalations when they want to say something.
