Hey! I remeber in 7th grade I was called on to read a paragraph out of our history text book. Couldn’t make it through the second sentence. That caused the teacher to email my mom and suggest I be put in speech therapy again. But I remember kids laughing at me, and afterwards making comments like “what’s wrong with him”...I felt so heart broken, embarrassed. But as the years went on (I’m 22 currently) I’ve realized that stuttering is just a part of me, sadly. And I’ve learned to not give a fuck what anyone thinks or says about me. Keep your head up, those asshole kids will never understand 😊
