Debina Bonnerjee takes 3.5 year old daughter to speech therapist; when to seek help

TV actress Debina Bonnerjee recently took her 3.5-year-old daughter to a speech therapist, sharing her experience in a vlog. The mother explained that just like other children, her daughter occasionally mispronounces words or speaks incorrectly. However, she believes that scolding a child without proper guidance could lower their confidence.

Thus, she sought the help of a speech therapist to provide correct guidance to her daughter. Bonnerjee emphasized that it's not always necessary to 'fix' a problem as it is merely a habit that can be corrected with the right approach. She stated, "I feel that there is not always a need to fix a problem because this is not a problem.

It’s a habit which can be corrected, and correcting it in the right way is very important." She added that sometimes, casually correcting children at home can lower their confidence. Instead, the right way of correcting is very important, and that's the essence of the visit to the speech therapist. This raises a common concern among parents: when is a lisp or unclear pronunciation just part of growing up, and when should one consult a professional?
