I’m not in high school anymore, but in general my stutter would I guess be considered mild. I have more blocks which I can play off as just forgetting the word or replace with “um” so nobody really noticed I think. If they did they didn’t tell me or show it. I just think it would have helped me with school presentations if the teachers knew, I usually asked the teachers to present after class to them. Most said yes and maybe if they knew it wasn’t just because I didn’t like presentations they would have been more understanding. I came off as shy in hs but I mainly didn’t speak up because of my stutter. Also there was a kid I knew from grade 3- grade 12 who stuttered more than me. Kids would make fun of him and I wish I had to the courage to talk to him and be like hey I stutter too. Ah the regrets we have as adults.
