I stutter and my 11 year old son does also. I prayed that he would escape the stutter fate, that it would be the one thing I wouldn’t pass along because of how negatively it’s affected me as a person. Despite this, he’s so incredible about it. He has never let it bother him one bit, and doesn’t let anyone’s comments about it bother him. He just signed up to be his class representative, which will put him in front of the whole class speaking about various things. He’s so much braver than I ever was, and it’s inspiring. Don’t let a possible stutter stop you from bringing an incredible person in the world.
