Why do some little kids speak with New Jersey accent?

Well, if they are from New Jersey or have close influences (parents, teachers, relatives, ect.) who have such an accent, then the little kid is likely just to pick it up as they learn to speak. Otherwise, if there is a speech impediment, some words or sounds may come out a bit off-sounding, giving hte sense that there is an accent behind them. _________________________________________________________________ Different answer: There is no such thing as a New Jersey accent. I hate it when people think that. theres a western accent, Boston accent, or a Brooklyn accent. No New Jersey accent, that's a rumor because of the show The Jersey Shore.
