Joe, Vikram and Tim,

Thank you for your interesting and challenging article. In it you mentioned that studies with adults have using imaging strategies (including PET) to compare fluent speech with stuttered speech. Have such studies also been done with children, or how young have the youngest participants been? Can you also comment further on the statement that the "amount of fluency enhancement" in using DAF and FAF with children who stutter has been "robust and stable." How young are the children you are working with?
