I regret not standing up So today at my church me and some other leaders were setting up before youth group. We go and grab corn hole boards and everything and I’m talking with a other leader. We’ll call them Mike, Jeff, and John. I was talking with mike and he asked “how old are you?” I said “I’m 16 but I’ll be 17 in December”. But I stuttered because of all the “S” sounds. Afterwards Jeff (keep in mind is a middle aged dude) says “you forgot your age? And repeats my stutter!!!!!!!! I’m blown away this happened. I just kinda laughed with it and kept moving and was embarrassed for myself because he actually thought I forgot my age. John also said “you’re to young to forget your name”. But he’s newer and I honestly don’t think he knew I have a stutter so he gets a pass. But the other dude AHHHH. I actually wish I stood up for myself and said “well I actually have a stutter but nice try bud”. But instead I was passive and it’s burning me up inside. As a Christian I know I shouldn’t fight stuff with anger but I hate that I let that dude get away with it. He’s a sad example of a leader. Now there’s a chance he doesn’t know I have a stutter. But he still shouldn’t say that. Bro I’m so mad I didn’t stand up
