Hi Anita, Thank you so much for such a great article. I just have a couple quick questions: Since many PWS have different perspectives on their stuttering and even varying effects from stuttering, how do you think most PWS think of stuttering - as a disability or a difference in communication? Also, I have a good friend who used to stutter (probably moderately) while we were children. Although she doesn't stutter as much now (and I don't notice it as much), she is still very shy because of it. How can I help her, and other people, to see that she's not any less of a person because of her stutter? Thanks! - Elizabeth
