Good Day, Firstly, I would like to congratulate you on your many prestigious accomplishments. However, I would like to know your feelings on speech intervention for young stutters or stutters who are having a difficult time accepting their speech impairments? Also, you mention that you had "fluency shaping" therapy as a child but you felt like you stutter more after the therapy than you did before. Why do you think this was so? Did you contine to employ the techniques you were taught during therapy or did you abandon the use of the techniques resulting in worsened stuttering? I enjoyed reading your article and I wish you continued success in your endeavors. Respectfully, Michelle Vidale
