Thank you very much Allison for your comments. I still find it difficult educating people on stuttering. I have met several stutterers who stutter severing and have made me understand that they don't need help. They are not even happy that I identify them as stutterers. Some of them believe that it is a curse and the situation can not be reversed. People are more concerned with issues that will bring them out of pouverty. I visit schools during their cultural festivals to talk about stuttering. The respond has always been positive. We organise radio programmes during ISAD celebrations to talk to the public. We still have a long way to go. God will help us. Thank you Allisson. Jonas
