Indeed. The way I see is that if you have a genetic defect that affects day to day life (oral communication) I find it cruel to have children. Now, if a stutterer has a child, it isn't a 100% guarante...

That's the harsh truth. Having a child knowing there's a strong genetic possibility he'll have communicative issues? Absolutely sickening. ...

What is your family dynamic like? Is this the only topic they act cold with or are they like this with every topic? I'm interested to hear more....

If your parents don't understand, there are people out there who do and I think getting in touch with these people, joining groups is one of the most beneficial things we can do. ...

I understand that you're pissed. I'm fucking pissed off also. My parents never stuttered so I cannot blame them for my stuttering. I think that stutterers shouldn't breed. If they want children then ...

Why didn't our parents take responsibility?

Why didn't our parents take responsibility? They gave birth to us. They passed on these faulty genetics to us. They should be held accountable 100%. My mother and father acted as if I NEVER had a stu...

I just had a 45 min presentation yesterday. Don't be afraid to stutter. Make your presentation how you would if you were fluent and practice it in the mirror. Just go in there confident and don't be a...

Very true! My whole class thought I was dumb because I would get to an easy word in class, and then struggle. I've just decided to own my stutter and not look at is as a problem, but something unique....

It works! Good luck...

Try relax, take a breath or have a drink even! While drunk I hardly stutter hahaha. Give it a go if you want, it'll work well in your favour I can assure you....

I wish that worked for me. I'm a bartender and introduce myself many times a night and always block. Yet I can say someone else's name whose is the same as mine... That's a slightly different scenario...

That's true but even if you practice saying your name in these situations, it might actually make you more confident because you might have times where you say your name with almost no block and it fe...
