Sure they can have a voice. Where did I say they couldn't? I'm voicing my opinion. I don't care if he's in therapy or not. I don't even promote therapy. The film shows what life is like for some stutterers who are still trapped by their condition. As I said, it's very well made and made in the best way to tug at heartstrings. All I said was the context to this video is not the default state of stutterers, but a person who has not personally matured yet. That's shown in him trying to hide his condition.
