I agree with Carol. If its not regular then its most because of the stress. Please talk to your kid and try to spend quality time with the kid mostly during those times and in regular to avoid those situations to occur.

Thanks carol and pavana ... I am trying to figure the cause but not sure if stress, anxiety or work pressure is the cause ... Reluctant in taking him to speech therapist as I don't want him to be consious of his stammering ... I think u r right .... He needs more love ,attention and my time .

I also face the problem of occasional stammering. It generally occurs due to lack of confidence or being too self conscious. Don't discuss this problem with others in front of your son and encourage him to speak slowly and not very fast. And believe me you can handle this problem. Its not a big one.
