You ask a really hard question! I'm going to copy the answer that is on the "Just For Kids" page where somebody else asked the same question. What we answered is "Nobody really knows why people start stuttering. Sometimes our speech machines (the parts of our bodies that make speech) don't work the way we want them to. There are many different ideas about why that happens. In fact, there may be different casues for different people. Scientists are working hard to try to figure out why people stutter. What is most important is that stuttering is nobody's fault. It's not your fault or your parents' fault." Thank you for being a part of this conference!! Judy Kuster
