>I also don't like how the program almost punishes him for stuttering by having him repeat things. There are ways to give verbal contingencies without making it feel like a punishment. If that's the feeling you or your son is getting, I think that's more harmful than any potential gain he *might* get. I found this interesting: https://stuttertalk.com/demands-and-capacities-and-lidcombe-roughly-equal-preschool-stuttering-treatments-at-18-months-post-treatment-onset-ep-548/ StutterTalk actually has a whole lidcombe series of episodes:https://stuttertalk.com/tag/lidcombe/ I would want my father to ask me about my stuttering, how it makes me feel, how I feel about the therapy, if it makes sense to me. And continue to seek the best help he can find.
