Kaitlin, Thank you so much for your kind words. Growing up I felt alone and isolate about my stuttering. I did not meet anyone who stutters until I was 26 years old. I did have friends but I felt like I had to hide my stuttering from them - so I never felt like I was being myself. I always felt like I was hiding a huge, important part of myself from my friends and family. I think if I had an Our Time growing up it would have changed me a lot. I think I would have been a much happier and more confident young man. But now hopefully kids who stutter won't have to feel the way I did. Thanks again and I hope you can see the Our Time kids in action in the near future. All my very best, Taro
