I don't want to stutter either, I never chose it or agreed to it – just like with so many other conditions and disorders as well – and I think it just requires the minimum amount of respect to understand that. I already talk myself trash for it enough. Hearing that I'm a disappointment or failure from others as well would likely kill my last piece of confidence and/or hope and I'd appreciate if you would respect the damage this could have on someone. OP, you're not alone or on your own with this. If communicating your feeling with your parents/your mother doesn't help, choose someone else who will listen. I believe in you. Lots of love.
