I said “the interviewer has a repetition” - I never implied he has “a stutter” This is my point. Everyone has repetitions, but it becomes a problem when we try to force through and they turn into a hard block (and secondary behaviors). Watching non-stutterers have repetitions (and seeing that it’s totally fine) can help PWS better tolerate their own repetitions (as blocks happen *because* we try to fight through repetitions.
