I take so much issue with this, I don't even know where to start. I guess with the presumption that the majority of stutterers don't have a familial link (citation???). Or maybe with the weird hardline distinction between genetic and developmental stuttering, of which there isn't one, a stutterer can be both. But most of all, probably with the advice to ignore a child's stutter for the purpose of... idek, really. Tricking them into thinking their speech is normal? The first people to ridicule me for my speech were not a teacher, parent, or speech therapist. It was just my peers. There's no escaping that. Ignoring a child's stutter is a bit of a cruel way to make them feel isolated. Like, it almost strikes me as gaslight'y. I'm bouncing hard off this one.
