Blaming stuttering as a whole on being a behavioral issue in this context is not only rude and dismissive, it's factually incorrect. There are many cases in which stuttering is genetic and many cases in which it appears to be an isolated occurrence. Regardless, a blanket statement such as this is unnecessary and unhelpful.
