Hi Kelly. There lots of kids, and others, who feel share my fears and dissapointments like I did. That's why I'm so happy for this online conference to share our stories. I hope you will help us to spread the word. Although I'm a stuttering teacher (for adults!), I have no stuttering students. But I do have adult teenagers, immigrants, elderly and people with learning disabilities. And they all benifit from the fact that I know what it's like to struggle, to move from one country to another, to learn a language, but also to be patient, respectful and know some things just take time. So we try to turn our difficulties into a challenge with a lot of laughter and openness and with small classes, we have more time for each other, share our personal stories and cheer on each other's progresses. We're just a lucky bunch. :) Keep talking. Anita
