Mr. Badmington – Thank you for being so candid in your article of your personal struggles and growth. I was wondering, when dealing with children, how you would help them deal with their images of themselves, and realize their full potential, instead of feeling inhibited by their stuttering. Would you encourage them to pursue other things, perhaps excelling in a sport would give them added confidence? Additionally, is there anything different you wished your parents had done in helping you cope with, and potentially overcome, your stuttering?
