Totally agree. I couldn't ignore it on my own either. I had to get help and support. If you live in the US, I recommend getting involved in the National Stuttering Association. If you're in California...

Perhaps I misread or maybe it was another comment from another person. I like to compare at times when it's convenient, it either makes me feel great or really bad. In this case, it makes me feel a l...

I don't know why you'd blame your mom if she doesn't even stutter (or even if she did lol, not like people hope their kids will have this). My grandad has a bad stutter and I don't blame him at all....

It truly is very taxing from day to day, week to week and so on. You never know when it's going to fall completely off the rails. I find it peculiar that others who don't have the affliction try to gi...

Sometimes people don’t want advice, they just want to vent and feel their feelings. Giving advice when they are upset doesn’t help. Instead maybe wait a couple hours and then ask if he wants to talk a...
