Love Stuttering as your Good Friend!

Peter Tonev

In this paper we discuss factors that reflect the author's experience in everyday work and investigation over the past few years in a specific form of attitudinal therapy – to accept stuttering positively not with abstract words or phrases but as a real face. We seek to change the negative feelings and attitudes of teens and adults who stutter and parents of CWS about the real nature of stuttering. We encourage them to live and communicate with Stuttering as their Friend during our therapy as well as after.
