Every fluent speaker should be cursed to spend 2 years of their adult life as a stutterer. If these people were forced to be a stutterer for 2 years of their life, I think (or at least hope) that the understanding of this neurological disorder/disability would skyrocket and they would finally finally stop saying cliches like "it's all on our heads" or "just speak calmly". And even if it doesn't solve anything at least they would finally experience it for themselves how it is to be one.
