Thanks for your answer. Thanks because you valorate my work. It is needed a huge mind-shift for the public, of course. Like many other "mental disorders", as autistic or Tourette syndrome. Fluency is not the answer for PWS, because many of them -most of them- will never reach it. Never. How can it be a reasonable answer for stutterers? It cannot be an answer. It is uthopic. Some other mental disorders have been not only removed but eliminated, as homosexuality, for example. About research, do you know any valid or true conclusions about stuttering? How many theories do you know about stuttering? Lots of them, too many, how many therapies are there? At least, 200 hundred (Le Huche, 2002). How many are effective? Eh, how many? I don´t know any. The medical model doesn´t offer any lasting understanding. Stutterin is human diversity, not a mental or communitaion disease. I have been about six years working on this idea, and 40 years stuttering! Thanks, my friend, thanks.
