Imagine the roll you could play in a young stutterers life.... I wish I had a teacher that stuttered and owned it when I was in high school. They might know you stutter, but do they actually know what stuttering is? Many people attribute it to nerves and EVERYONE does it... But thats not the case. It is a neurological disorder and most of us really cant help. Over time we gain fluency, but only with practice and confidence, and even then we still stutter! If you guys are all so close, then I can imagine that having a good conversation about something so personal to you would only make you all closer and probably make you feel great.
