Stefan, Thank you so much for sharing your personal story about being a father of a child who is stuttering and being a PWS yourself. We appreciate your courage to share here. You have the tools as a PWS to help your child. Your tools are your values...Values like: I value being honest (with myself and others), I value being compassionate (with myself and others), I value being a good father (for myself and my children), I value being a kind person (to myself and others). These type values can lead you to being honest with your child, compassionate with them (without reactions of blame, guilt, sadness), protective of them (while being open to reality), and being kind to your child (with the highest level of flexibility to change). You have the tools of experience, being there, knowing what thoughts you had as a child who stutters, knowing what reactions you had to those thoughts (behaviors like emotions, fears, sadness). You have the tools Stefan... Thank you again for sharing a piece of yourself with us. Have a wonderful day!!! Scott
