Gingerchick has a lisp and tends to bite on her tongue when pronouncing esses and th's. She had speech therapy when she was young but has lapsed a little and is looking to do something. (we have three kids so we're broke)
So I thought I'd prod at the cerebral monster that is the Nothing at all to do with woodworking to see if anyone can offer some advice on exercises etc.
Thanks in advance.
G'day Mick,
I know my suggestion is a bit off-putting, but PK chewing gum worked on all the grandkids.
Did you threaten them with it? :?
No, only if they dropped it anywhere :UQuote:

ta, get her to give it a go. She got a bit excited the other day and took a substantial chunk out. ouch.
There are singers who sing beautifully but when they talk they either lisp or stutter. So get her to serenade you instead of talking to you.

With some people I have known it was worst in stressful/anxious situations. If that is the case she can learn relaxation/breathing techniques to lower the stress levels.
