I can tell it was meant with best intentions, but for me personally it doesn’t quite sit right. Particularly “when you’re struggling…” feels condescending - I’m *not* struggling when I stutter, this is how I speak. In the same way someone is blind is not constantly struggling. They’ve adjusted and this is their life. True courtesy would be to treat the stutterer like any other person you’re listening to speak - and maybe not culminate their words by focusing on their speech, rather what they said. It’s great exposure and the stutterer said the right thing. But, whenever someone says this to me - it does feel performative sometimes and like, did you even actually listen to what I just said? or were you think about asking that question that whole time as does asking that feel empowering for you?
