A member asked:
Do people who begin to stutter also develop a lisp later on?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: A lisp is a tongue thrust articulation problem, but stuttering is a brain problem.

Not Necessarily: These may occur in the same person but one does not automatically go with the other.
