That's the first thing I learned as well. Acceptance to me seems like the top of the ladder. Confidence needs to be gained, self respect for myself needs to be gained and over all not giving a fuck needs to be accomplished first. I think I am currently on the self respect part. The other two....still working up to those. I know stuttering is hard to deal with but please don't give up on becoming a teacher. I had a teacher in high school with a stutter and because none of the the students in my classes stuttered, she was the only one I felt I could be comfortable around. It made me feel not so alone in this times. And she was a good teacher. She knew her stuff.
