Hi Crystal, I am a Graduate student at Syracuse University. Children have a hard time expressing their feelings about stuttering – I think this is a wonderful idea to allow expression, and incorporation of all children, to better understand stuttering. When children talk about their feelings, it must give them more confidence to participate with their peers, especially knowing their classmates have a better understanding of stuttering. Do you find using this activity allows children to open-up in school and share their feelings about stuttering? How do children who do not stutter respond to the newspaper, are they interested in participating and learning more? Have you ever used this activity with older clients? I'm wondering how they would react to sharing their stories.
