Hey fffriends, Live mint of Hindustan Times has done a comprehnesive write up on stammering, based on Keith’s interview. You too can write to news-papers & dailies in your cities and talk about what it means to stammer and how self-help can change our perspective..
We must talk to the outside world if we want the world to become a better place for our children :-)) (assuming we do get married eventually!)

we appreciate your efforts for nesting a very informative and detailed write up on stammering.In today's information technology era, where almost everything from education to homosexuality is being discussed and debated on national television than why there is still dearth of knowledge and awareness on stammering. Are stammers ought to get only public ridicule and lampooning in movies..?
last year bollywood done a remarkable job by making sensitive movies (Kaminey and Ajeb Prem ki Gajab Kahani) on stammering which shows the plight of stammerers in a positive way.
Western culture is more acceptable toward stammering/stuttering many documentaries movies being made like.. "speak to courage", "Unspeakable", "Rocket Science" etc.
TISA is igniting a self – help movement for PWS, where ppl can help them-self by helping others.It is a place for ppl who have tried many speech therapy and lost interest in mainstream speech therapy.
