My father was irritated by and got very frustrated with me because of my stutter and did the typical stop think about what you saying rubbish. I absolutely had a childhood anxiety disorder because of both of my parents actions related to and not related to my stutter. Coupling that with no speech therapy. I don't think I ever had a chance of overcoming it as a child. I didn't really deal with it at the time. As an adult I learnt anxiety coping techniques and I actually have a pretty great life now with a minor stutter most days
