Wow, what an amazing paper! I think spreading awareness about bullying and ways that we can help prevent it is an amazing thing. It's so important for children, teenagers and even adults who stutter to have the support of others when it comes to bullying. Each and every one of the steps given throughout this paper are so important in helping to prevent bullying and understanding that they are the ones that know themselves best. Everybody has been bullied at least once in their life, whether it was about the way you looked or the way you talked, so we all know what it feels like to be embarrassed or ridiculed. When I was younger my brother had a friend who stuttered and I remember other kids bullying him at school mostly because they didn't know the FACTS about stuttering or even what he went through every single day. That's why I think it's so important to spread awareness about stuttering, and why this paper really grabbed my attention. One other thing that I really loved about this paper was Step 4. I love this step becuase it provides different organizations and groups that PWS can visit and connect with in overcoming the many obstacles of bullying and knowing that they aren't alone in the process. I want to thank you so much for sharing this information with everybody and hope that stuttering awareness and bullying prevention can be spread. Sincerely, Kayleigh Ash
