We have a child with quite a noticeable stammer (we had another one last year) and I found the British Stammering Association very helpful, with a good website. Thought I'd let everyone know about it. They sent us some free, very reassuring leaflets (useful to pass on to worried parents) with practical suggestions for ways to handle it. Website is http://www.stammering.org/ Carolyn
