Manpreet: Yes, we have no bananas. Are you using an actual song melody or a sing-song style? Sounds to me like it's the latter which is likely a temporary distractor effect. Temporary distractors come in all shapes, sizes, even gizmos such as The Amazing StutterMaster (not available in stores). Unless your stuttering is very moderate, there's no substitute for genuine and thorough desensitization, healing and strengthening. And yes, as long as singing is communication neutral, as in singing songs, many people who stutter can sing. But add those melodies to real-world communication and you've got a hurtin' song, as they'd say in American country music. Doesn't work. Try it, you'll see. — Ed Feuer, edfeuer@mts.net
