Accepting that stuttering is part of who you are and talking without worrying about stuttering or trying not to stutter are the first steps to not stuttering. Sounds funny, but it is true. Some people stutter a little as very young children and grow out of it; others struggle with controlling it their entire lives. You may never completely stop stuttering, but you can learn ways to control it so it is not noticeable.
The child should not be interrupted when talking and if he stutters the parent shouldn't say "hurry up," or complete the sentence for the child. The parent should simply do nothing...be patient and listen and let the child complete what he or she is trying to say. I don't think stuttering causes shyness, but it can cause fear of talking. My professor had a guy come talk to us that had a stuttering problem and he even stuttered while talking to us.
One thing he said is for people to keep looking him in the eye and wait for him to finish what he's saying. He said he didn't like it when people would act uncomfortable and look down or look away. Just simply do nothing and let the person work it out for themselves.
