5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful for a parent, March 5, 2006

By	Oksana Badanina "Oksana" (Manhattan, New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although this book was written for the healthcare provider, or student, I have found it to be helpful as a parent of a four year old that has been stuttering for over 6 months.

I have even posted the interventions in this book as a list on the fridge for our family to refer to. On this list are things such as "No simultalk" and "pause for 2 seconds prior to responding."

I am very glad with this book. As a matter of fact, a trip to the speech pathologist who charged me more, was not even as close to being as helpful as this book. Thank you Doctors Onslow and Packman!

Greatful,
Oksana
