Hi SLP, on a related note, what you're saying is true but I want to also say that slowing down isn't the answer for every stutterer. It doesn't work with me for example, because I'm not going to slow down. I hate slowing down. It feels as if it's incompatible with who I am and i'm not going to change myself. This little runoff is mostly directed at fully fluency shaping programs and not at advising clients to slow down, but I felt it was important to share that slowing down isn't the answer for everyone.
