I apologize. I in no way meant to imply anyone wasn't working hard enough towards their fluency. Truth is, some of us don't work towards it. Or haven't done so yet. I did the same speech therapy program in my teens as I did in my 20s. I didn't get much out of it in my teens. The difference in my 20s was that I worked really hard at it. Again though, this post was about my anger when people equate stuttering to more severe and permanent disabilities. I'm just as entitled to my anger, as you are to your anger towards me. Best wishes
