"We have NO data to suggests that parents play a role in either stuttering onset, or its recovery/persistence." Tom then asked about Lidcombe which Nancy dismissed, giving as a reason that in this case the parent was playing at being the therapist. But what about Parent-Child Interaction? Hasn't it been reported that one parent can communicate well with the child, but the other does not (often the dad)?
