Family Matters Looking to see if anyone else has this issue when it comes interacting with family members. My stutter is fairly noticeable around strangers, but not so much with people I'm close with. EXCEPT my parents. When i talk to my mother and father (worse with my dad) i stutter way more then with most people. I know it bothers my mother, and my dad doesn't seem to mind anymore. But i interact with my parents more then anybody and am more familiar with them then anyone else. Yet my stutter is worse around them then anyone else. Can anyone explain why this is? Also is this common amongst stutters?
