Stuttering can affect a child's confidence when speaking, which may affect their social skills and how they relate to peers.

A voice disorder in children is typically caused by vocal nodules, making their voice sound hoarse, breathy or rough. Speech therapy will teach children and parents a healthy voice production pattern while eliminating poor vocal hygiene.
Motor speech disorders, such as Childhood Apraxia of Speech, makes it difficult to control and/or coordinate the muscles of the face, tongue, or larynx for the purposes of speaking.
