Hi Adam,

Thank you for an excellent article. I will be sharing it with my students and helping them to see how you discovered that stuttering can be a gift in a way. It sounds to me like you really changed your perspective on bullies. You don't usually let their stuff have a "landing pad" and therefore it doesn't affect you anymore. Cool! I have a 5th grader who is worried about having to give presentations this year, do you have any advise for him and how he can change his perspective on this experience? We are currently having fun using guided imagery, and he seems to be building his confidence, but any other insights are most welcome.

Thanks, Marjorie
