Also married to a stutterer. 100% ENDORSE! Also, I LOVE that bar name SO much. My view, not having had a stutter but having lived with my husband for 35 years and watched our younger son learn, with his father's tender guidance and support, to manage his own mild stutter -- is that stuttering, just like any disability or hardship, can make a person more empathetic and raise emotional intelligence so much. I don't mean to suggest that it's a "gift" because I know how hard it is! But it truly has made both my men into incredible people, with wonderful lives, and I believe this is possible for all.
