You mentioned that Australia legally recognizes stuttering as a disability. What other countries legally recognize stuttering as a disability? Along those same lines, in what other countries is it unlawful to discriminate against an individual due to the fact that they stutter? Since Australia has both of these laws and there is still a negative attitude toward the word disability, I wonder what else can be done to avoid this negativity?
