People don’t understand the true disability side of stuttering. I’m not gonna sit here and compare it with the likes of other physical disabilities. However, stuttering can be hidden and may be mistaken for ‘being nervous’. Hence, people often look down on it. They just think you’re a bumbling fool, as opposed to having a genuine issue.
