Eh. Stuttering gives us just one more thing to worry about in social settings. Non-stutterers worry about the things we do, just not stuttering. (Obviously, for most of us, stuttering will be our main focus. Non-stutterers have other main-focuses.) It's not a competition. Just because we have it "worse" than a group, doesn't mean that group doesn't have problems. Fit example, deaf people. They have a more difficult time communicating than we do. They have to read lips or use sign language. Or write, which is really tedious and time consuming. If the person they're talking to doesn't know sign language, then the deaf person can't really respond. People with mutism. Some of them can't talk at all, others can't talk in uncomfortable situations. Those groups of people could scoff at our problems, because at least we can speak and communicate verbally - they can't. Again, it's not a competition. Struggle and difficulty varies. Someone's struggle is not negated by another's "worse" one.
