It sounds like your parents were overwhelmed. They may not have known how to deal with two different development issues. To be fair, the child that needs more attention will get the attention. It's not a malicious thing, it's just how it works. You may have stuttered and had anxiety, but you weren't physically or mentally compromised, so more resources went where they were needed. Your parents, like my parents and wife are both very used to my stutter, to where my wife even says she hardly notices that I stutter, which isn't alot but it tends to pop up. Don't hold long term animosity against your parents, you will grow up into an adult and adapt. You will gain wisdom and perspective in time and learn to forgive them because no one has the blue prints. You should approach them at some point in the fuutre and speak to them about it. Right now, your mission is to control your speech, get good at and find a job. Don't allocate your resources to areas that won't help you succeed
