As a graduate student who has not yet had the experience of working with someone who stutters, I have found your article very informative. The idea of "deawfulizing" stuttering makes a lot of sense. I especially like the fact that the children are taught to know that the bully is the one who has the problem, not them. Children have enough to deal with when they are trying to get along with their peers, and I feel that this type of therapy would help them in every aspect of their lives and not just in dealing with their stuttering.
