My second kid stutters like me. I was so depressed for a while. I did not think much about it before because my childhood conditions were not ideal and I did receive any help. When I grow up, my speaking got better. I cannot say “my stuttering is healed”. I genuinely believe it’s not something to just disappear. It’s like a spectrum. When I get nervous, I stutter a lot. I kind of manage it and hide it so well in my mother language now. After my second kid started to talk and stutter, we moved a first world country. Conditions at here are better, people are so kind and respectful and speech therapy is more common. In the future we will get some support from the school. Now we can easily go to the speech therapy using our insurance. So she is very happy and confident with herself. The most bizarre thing is that she stutters a lot in our mother language and not in English (her second language is English but since started to kindergarten maybe she is better at English). But for me I now started to stuttering so much in English that it is blocking my speaking so much. Anybody who really wants to have kid, I can somewhat suggest that you can give the best environment in the word for your stuttering kid. The suggestions and insights that our paediatrician, child psychologist and speech therapist gave me are nothing new to me. They said I already have been saying all the right things to her and giving her the best attitude about this situation. But if you are not want to deal with these things once again (and it’s so understandable if you don’t want to, because all of us have so much trauma while dealing with things as a kid), it can be an option to not to have kids. But again I can promise to you all, your children won’t be feeling so bad about themselves and you have all the tools they will need to manage it even if you don’t know yet
