Too many people spend their days wondering "Why Do I Stutter". Science has not yet developed a concrete cause for stuttering. Various research findings point to genetic disorders, brain dysfunctions, environmental factors and parental behavior.
The magnitude of stuttering among people widely differs from simple childhood vocal changes to complex adult speech disorders. It is established that stuttering is not a physical disorder. The tongue, jaw has no connection with stuttering. The theory that parent behavior may cause stuttering in child also finds no exact relevance because not all children subjected to parental misbehavior later developed stuttering.
In humans, speech is produced as a result of a coordinated effort of brain and muscles. Breathing and articulation using the tongue, jaw, teeth and lips are involved in a normal speech. When speaking, an individual takes breath and the vocal codes in the voice box come together. The air in the lungs is passed by the vocal codes, the vibration of which results in speech. The sound is altered by tongue, lips and nose to form the various words.
