I’ve been stuttering for all 17 years of my life and I realized it’s not people that judge us it’s ourselves that judge us. I’ve gone to the same school for 17 years and no one really cares anymore except for me. I care if I stutter and I beat myself up for it. No one else does. He will have to deal with this stutter all of his life but it’s something that all of us stutterers have to get through. There’s always gonna be someone to talk to to get through stuttering problems. There was a time when I couldn’t speak at all. But I overcame that.I feel it best to find solace in true friends who don’t care if you stutter that’s what helps the best. I still stutter but I learn more about how to deal with it everyday. He will be fine.
