This article was extremely informative and useful to me. I am working with my first fluency client. In our initial session she mentioned perfection. She eventually wanted to attain some sort of perfection within her own speech. I addressed her comment, and I thought it was just something particular to her. I never once thought there may even be a correlation between other PWS and perfectionistic tendencies. Now that I know this is an issue that many PWS face I believe I should go more in depth on this issue with this particular client. I believe this is an important avenue to delve into. I learned a great deal from this article and study. Thanks for sharing such an informative topic.
