Vasu....Agree with you 100% regarding Johnson and Sheehan. All of their research and findings should definitely be required to be examined, reviewed and discussed by those wanting to have the honor of working with children who stutter, teens who stutter and their parents. After attending the SID # 4 conference this year, it did seem that it was the "in thing" by many professionals regarding themselves as "experts" to easily trash many of the-- what I consider to be -- "Great Ones." Your post was refreshing, and I do hope students in Comm. Dis. wanting to work with CWS/TWS and their parents will at least explore by themselves when many of their instructors choose to say "pay no attention." It is easy for those who do not stutter to do and say this. I say find out all you can about everything the "Great Ones" did. Hell, they started the field! They couldn't have been that ignorant.... Glad your involved in the ISAD conference. It would be neat to see it go on and on and on....Hope to meet you someday!
