The twentyish female stutterers I know never had any problem with dating....

I've never had too many problems. Maybe it's because the people I date are good friends first, so they already know me and have accepted my problem. Also, if any guy had an issue with who I was, I wou...

Hey ladies, how's dating for you?

Hey ladies, how's dating for you? Men are usually the pursuers and women are the choosers. So I'm curious as to how dating is for you. ;) Do you struggle to find a date/partner directly because of yo...

I've learned a lot about stuttering and how to handle it with kids. I feel well equipped to give them every opportunity and all the support they need if they end up developing stutterers. I won't put ...

I have two kids. Neither of them stutter. As DP82 said they don't care and I also stutter less with them. The evidence that stuttering may be genetic is tenuous at best. From what I've read one may ...

Please talk to them. You will be doing yourself a service as well as other stutterers...

I hate to be interrupted and ignored while I'm stuttering

I hate to be interrupted and ignored while I'm stuttering It happened twice today. It was quiet in the room for a few seconds, I was going to ask my brother something and mid-sentence I begin to stutt...

Good to hear. I'd love to continue on my speech therapy lessons, but too bad I also have social anxiety so I have to pay a ton of money on taxi fares to even get to one lesson. ...

The only way to speak without stuttering I've seen is to speak like a robot. Controlled tone, controlled inflection and voicing. If you're worried about the ridicule you'll get from being yourself and...
