My mother was and still is a fucking narcissist who made fun of me growing up. (Yeah, imagine getting taunted by your mother for not being able to speak fluently). Fast forward, I am in my 30s, found a supportive wife, and though I still stutter, I feel it's under control. I feel like my stutter would have better coping skills had I gotten SLP help growing up; that is the reason why I resent my mother.
