Part one of this two-part course will describe strategies for helping to insulate the child who stutters from the effects of bullying. These strategies include desensitization to stuttering and desensitization to bullying in preparation for learning how to respond effectively to bullying to reduce the likelihood of further bullying. Part one focuses on the process of helping children who stutter become less affected when bullied by other children. Desensitization to stuttering and bullying, and learning appropriate responses to bullying, can help to insulate children so bullying is less likely to affect them.
