I do so, but tactfully and matter of factly. Don’t wait until you start to struggle. You don’t want it to seem like something you are sharing as an excuse or even a shield. It’s just something you wan...

I know his hearts in the right place but another thing with growing with your stutter is not caring what people think. The hardest part is your father. Mine I know he loves me but for 33 years if I st...
