I had a lisp as a child and I know why—when people say “th”, there’s a bit of a whistling sound, the same way an “s” has a whistling sound. So I *thought* when I said “th” that I was making a “s” sound. Basically I was mistaken in how to make that sound. Once this was made clear to me, and I was shown how to make an “s”, I did it correctly.
