Yeah I realised how immature and cruel people. in secondary, I was friends with a girl that stuttered a lot. We were in a group of 4, where 2 of them were closer to each other than us, and they would both laugh at her, especially this one other girl. The toxicity in that group is the reason why I left eventually when I realised how judgmental those people could be. It’s honestly low that people laugh about things like this. But yes , my bf did mention about there were giggles going around and how that made him feel. it made me sad tbh. I spent last night basically telling him that it’s ok if he stutters etc. Hopefully he’ll slowly learn to accept himself and find a way to improve it
