Thanks for posting this. This is a very odd situation indeed. I'd like to also encourage /r/stutter to support this petition. It will only be stronger for PWS to sign on. I've signed on and left my ...

Stuttering affects people differently, but for most people it's a negative experience. I wouldn't want to have to send my kid to school knowing that he/she would most likely have the same feelings I ...

If you don't think the government should dictate what kind of speech therapy you're allowed to have for stuttering, please sign this (xpost r/slp)

That's exactly how I feel and then I become even more conscious of it....

One of my fears as well. I'd love to have a child and teach him all the valuable lessons I've learnt as stutterer but he shouldn't have to go through those experiences. I'd feel like my son or daughte...

I didn't kno it was hereditary. That kinda worries me now...

If that is true then I know many exceptions to that. ...

I have heard that it skips a generation but I have absolutely nothing to back this up. Interestingly enough, there is no mention in any of my family history about any ancestors that stuttered. Maybe t...

I like this post. You say you've accomplished a lot at 24. How was your situation during ages say 19-22? Did you have a bad stutter or was it gradually improving? Did you still feel accomplished in li...

I've had a "friend" who would do this to me occasionally. It is one of the worst feelings, not just for that moment, but it makes you realise that the person is judging every word you say for the foll...

I like this post. Thank you for sharing your story....

I've thought about trying to do that more effectively. I always go by Dan but have recently thought Daniel would maybe flow more easily from the "iel" sound into the B rather than the "n" in Dan....

Yes my grandfather has a minor stutter. He has repetition problems and I have problems with blocks. ...

My name starts with an M. Saying out my name in front of a new teacher or guests are one of biggest horrors. But sometimes when I taking to new people my age (I am 23) I just say my name is Bruce Wayn...

I was worried that my daughter would have a stutter as well but she's almost 2 now and starting to form sentences, and so far there has been no sign of any stutter. ...

It has been said to me in a jokingly/teasing manner. That I can handle. If it isn't said in such a manner I would simply walk away from the conversation....

It's the reason I'm still unsure whether I want kids. Stuttering runs in my family, from both sides even. My dad has a mild stutter and from my mothers side my uncle, aunt and grandfather stutter. Doe...

I don't think I've ever experienced that. Sounds awful....

I was talking to my online friend and I was having issues talking and he told me to spit it out and it really hurt. I stopped talking and he eventually called me and I explained to him why I was quite...

I really hope my future children/child does not have a speaking disability.

I really hope my future children/child does not have a speaking disability. My stutter has undoubtly taught me many valuable lessons about myself as a person and as a member of society. But I truly ho...
