I don't really know. The answser to your question about PWS stuttering more or less with other PWS may vary with their history, and how well he knows the other PWS. A PWS may feel more relaxed with other PWS and as a result not try to hide his problem, or avoid talking, etc., and just talk, and le whatever happens, just happen. Or that same relaxed feeling may reduce his anxieties about talking, and as a result he may stutter less. I believe it is a highly variable, and individualized issue. I have noticed that some of the questions are of a general nature that deal with the population as a whole, when the issue may really not carry a group answer, but rather an individualized approach to a given individual.
