In my experience, making fun was more common in school <18, in adult people usually are more reserved in saying shit. Or maybe because Im 6'5''/195cm, I noticed that normal people can understand that ...

Well that’s a given. I’m not saying that everyone is like that either. I definitely understand how stuttering can make things awkward, but that’s not an excuse to be rude....

I don’t think it’s that. There are not many stutterers that most people interact with on a day to day. As a result, the pauses, blocking, and repetitions create space in a conversation that people are...

Such people lack basic manners, so best to ignore them. God made us this way, and there's hardly anything we or anyone else can do about it. So it's best to accept it with a smile on our face, and kno...

Like how Dave says, most of the time it’s in our heads. Unless you’re young in high school and the other kids are being dicks. But as an adult I never had anyone tell me anything. But everyone’s stutt...

It’s always been the same on here over the years. It’s unfortunate, but it’s just simply a fact that stuttering can be painful, traumatic, isolating amongst many other things. I also think a lot of y...
