I would agree with the statement that we need to fight the hurtful attitudes wherever we find them. I think it should start with preventitive measures to keep this hurtful attitude from evolving in students who are entering the field of speech language pathology. Many professors have used a pseudostuttering assignment in an effort to help students understand what it feels like to stutter and the emotions associated with stuttering. The belief and value system of individuals is so deeply ingrained, what are some additional ways that we can change these deep-seated beliefs?
