GRAFTON, N.D. Parents ea-
gerly anticipate the moment wher
their child first begins to talk. But
for some parents, it is a time of anx-
iety because their child struggles to
get words out. As many as five per-
cent of preschool children nation-
wide have repetitions and prolon-
gations of sounds severe enough to
be of concern to their parents.
The DVD in English and Span-
ish, Stuttering and Your Child:
Help for Parents, helps parents
detect stuttering and take action to-,
ward helping their child and is
available at most public libraries•
Some libraries have an older video
format.

of Northwestern University, Patri-
cia Zebrowski, Ph.D., of the Uni-
versity of Iowa, and Kristin
Chmela, M.A., also of Northwest-
ern University.
These experts address common
concerns that parents have about
their child, such as how to help the
child at home and whether to seek
the advice of a speech pathologist.
Strategies parents can use to help
reduce stuttering are given through-
out the DVD and include reducing
the number of questions they ask
the child, focusing on taking turns
during conversations, and making
time to read or talk with the child
in a relaxed manner.
