I'm sure Bill Parry is a wonderful man. I've never met him. But the hypothesis is crap. I just leads people who don't know about stuttering to the wrong conclusion. In my opinion it reinforces the ide...

I understand. I'm not really convinced the posters here want "advice" per se. I think it's more of a place to rant. Which, that is healthy in a way, but it's rather frustrating to see a post you care ...
