Thank you for sharing Todd's story. I feel it is imperative that more people become aware of the fact that there isn't a 'cure' for stuttering. It is a way of life that needs to be accepted through a feeling of control.
In Todd's story, did you use PFCT? If so, did you use it 'before' and/or 'after' he attempted to be cured? Why do you think that Todd continued to search for a cure after he "explained to his audiences that his goal was to maintain the feeling of control rather than to focus on fluency?" Was he in denial? Are there any warning/identifying signs of CPS at this stage?
Thanks again for your devotion to fluency and advocating for PWS everywhere.
