Does stuttering have something to do with intelligence? This is one of the most illogical questions occupying the minds of most of the non-stutterers. And the answer to such a question is a definite no. Stuttering is only a speech hindering disorder which causes the sufferers to stammer when they speak. Being a speech disorder, stuttering has no connection whatsoever to intelligence and intellect. Though some may argue that the neural patterns of stutterers differ from those of non-stutterers, the neurons responsible for hearing and speech are in no way related to the neurons responsible for intelligence.

The notion of comparing stuttering to intelligence is in itself erroneous because the intelligence of a person is measured through the IQ or Intelligence Quotient. The IQ of a person depends largely on the ability of a person to grasp new things and learn stuff quickly. But the neurons responsible for determining one’s IQ is present in the frontal cortex whereas the ones responsible for hearing and speech are present at the posterior and this clearly shows that one can in no way affect the other.

Although scientifically there is no connection between intelligence and stuttering, the intelligence of a stuttering individual can deteriorate because of the problem. This is largely based on how the stuttering kids were treated in their surroundings. Stutterers are generally made fun of and are never given a chance to show their prowess. Though the society considers them to be disabled in a way, it denies them the compassion which is usually shown towards disabled people. Where concessions are made for other disabled, the stutterers are neither given the concessions nor are they treated with concern and even worse are the taunts pointed at them.

Even though some stutterers have been able to successfully overcome the taunts and displayed their intelligence, they have not been able to showcase their abilities because of the society’s indifference to them. On top of that, the society has created a view around them depicting them as a dull lot, giving the world an impression that they are not as intelligent as other people. But one proving point to show that there can be no link between stuttering and intelligence is the number of famous successful people including Sir Winston Churchill, King George VI, etc., who have proved their astuteness in spite of their stutter.

Sometimes innovations come from learned men in laboratories. Other times they come from positive-thinking people with a burning desire to do something and who lack the education to know that it can’t be done. Consider the examples set by Wilber and Orville Wright, Thomas Edison and many others…

Now a businessman in Coventry, England, named Wynford Dore has come up with a dyslexia treatment that is getting amazing results. Mr. Dore was not an expert in medicine, but his daughter Susie, now 35, suffered from dyslexia so severe she tried to commit suicide. A concerned Father, he set out to DO something. Mr Dore has been quoted as saying, “Experts have argued for 50 years about whether dyslexia exists or not. They have argued about what causes it, how to define it, how to diagnose it and how to treat it.

“My daughter Susie attempted to take her own life while the so-called experts argued among themselves. We focused on solving the problem rather than arguing about its existence.” [Typical no-nonsense direct approach that drives the Academicians and PhD's wild. At the time the Wright brothers made their audacious experiment at Kitty Hawk, learned men in famous Universities were arguing over aerodynamic theories, some of which 'proved' that a bumblebee could not fly...]

The dyslexia treatment that Mr. Dore came up with is aimed at improving co-ordination. It uses an exercise regimen to stimulate the cerebellum section of the brain. Inspiration came from exercises developed for astronauts, who seem to develop temporary dyslexia-like symptoms with long periods in space.

On the surface, the exercises, like tossing a bean bag from hand to hand, walking down stairs backwards with your eyes closed, or standing on a ball, seem to have little to do with reading. But recent controlled studies in England involving school children with dyslexia and ADHD, have demonstrated amazing results. The experts are slack-jawed with astonishment! Dyslexic subjects who earlier only progressed 7 months in a year, after taking the “brain gym” dyslexia treatment, completed 20 months of reading training in the next similar time period.

Furthermore, 10 out of 12 with ADHD showed no symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder afterward. 80% of the dyslexic students were symptom-free. Some of the teachers of the dyslexic and ADHD students tested them afterward and pronouncing them as being apparently “cured”!

Furthermore, the dyslexic students taking the dyslexia treatment-training continued their progress in the third year of the studies, some even progressing faster than their non-dyslexic classmates!

Mr. Dole has founded a chain of training centers (11 or more at this point) to offer dyslexia treatment in an 18 month course now available in parts of England. He points out that his dyslexia treatment is drug-free and thus risk free.

Stuttering is a speech impediment which is a frustration for all of those people who are affected by it. It can be extremely frustrating for the parents of children who have a stutter. They try desperately to help their young sibling however often find it difficult to find suitable and beneficial therapy for stuttering. It is also, of course, very frustrating for the person who has the stutter. Being unable to speak fluently is often embarrassing and can have a deeply negative affect on one’s confidence.

There are various forms of stuttering therapy for children. The majority of parents would start by booking their child into see their local speech therapist, after all this form of treatment is normally free. I had a stuttering problem throughout my childhood and my experiences with traditional speech therapists were far from a positive one, in truth it only added to the frustration.

It was not because the speech therapists were not caring or trying their best to help me, it was more the fact that they did not fully comprehend want it was like to have this form of speech impediment. I was told, by more than one speech therapist, that there was no known cure for stuttering and that I needed to try to accept the fact that I had a stutter. This for me was a rather negative attitude and one that was quite defeatist, perhaps they could not be bothered to try to find a cure. I knew that I could, at times, as fluently as the next person. For example when I was on my own I did not have the slightest hint of a stammer or stutter.

After realizing that speech therapists are unable to help their child to overcome their stutter, parents will often then look for some private specialized stuttering therapy. This is likely to prove to be of more benefit however to succeed at making the fluency techniques work and is hard work and practice. Their child needs to be aware of this, in the majority of cases the child in questions will be more than happy to work hard if it is likely to result in them overcoming their stutter.

Mom, I can really help you. As you know, I have a tribe, it is really starting to affect my life and this is something I have become. Whatever reason, the traditional speech therapy in the past ten years I do not work. Could you see if you can find if there is anyone out there who claim to cure stuttering? I really like the fluid reaching my life so much easier.

I remember talking to mymother in this way when I was your age fifteen. The tribe was really dragging me down at this stage of my life and every decision I took was dictated by the tribe.

Both my parents understand how important it is to try to find a solution for this type of speech and worked tirelessly on my behalf.

As I became a man, I began to rely much more on speech and learning. As an example, I could obviously speak very well when I was drunk, no doubtalcohol was to increase my overall confidence and my speech improved as a result. By the way, I was not drunk at the age of fifteen!

It convinced me that there is an answer to my stuttering problem, and at the age of twenty-two I began to find a cure for this terrible strain.

Overall it took me one years to find the answers I was looking for almost my whole life. You'd think one years is a long time, but after the strain of eighteen years,seemed no time for me.

I am now four thirty years old, as in 2008, twelve years and is now floating.
