Dear Authors, Thank you for sharing this article! I agree that stuttering support groups are very important for individuals to attend. These groups allow individuals who stutter to realize that there are other people who stutter, take risks that they may have previously feared, and become stronger, more confident individuals. I believe that there should be more support groups out there for both individuals who stutter and for the parents of children who stutter. Attending support groups will assist in addressing the behaviors, emotions, and attitudes associated with stuttering in a less structured, more naturalistic place without feeling the pressures of a therapeutic environment. Thank you both for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us!
