Yeah, the troublemakers got a talking to. Probably a lot of them would have been understanding, but I think once one kid starts laughing or mocking it makes other kids laugh....

I explained to them about stuttering but a couple of them still laughed at me all week when I would get really stuck. I think it's the weird faces I sometimes make when I'm struggling that really set ...

I understand what you mean. Stuttering is hard to understand for us, much less for kids and even adults. My son is young and he was naturally curious and even thought it was funny when he was 4-5. He ...

Lewiston-Auburn Maine. I lived for 37 years in Gorham Maine. My son who stutters like me went to UMO and he got bullied until I went to the parents and put a stop to it. Good Luck...

>Boy was I wrong. I got laughed at all week by little kids who didn't understand me and kept asking why I talked so funny They came in contact with something they don't know / don't understand and...

I'm the youngest of 3 lmao but I just dislike kids. If they're well behaved, I couldn't care but anything less and it's annoying imo Kids do too much You should do it again but just ignore the kids ...

I'm the oldest of seven lol so I'm pretty used to kids, but not ones that rude and bratty. At least now I know to never ever do this again....

Depends on their aget too I guess but I'm not great with kids and would despise the kid. You're a better person than I am lol...

Yeah, I kept reminding myself they're just kids and probably haven't been taught any better so I wouldn't be so upset. Someone else gave that kid a talking to at least....

At least they aren't regulars by the sounds of things. I wouldn't have cared about their upbringing in that situation, I'd have been biased when helping them out, depending on what it was you were he...

You can explain to adults, and they at least get it, but kids don't care and don't want to listen and aren't even really capable of empathy so I guess I shouldn't be that surprised....

The kids at my church all know me, but a lot of these were random neighborhood kids, probably not with the greatest upbringing....

I'm not too sure what you were doing to help those kids but I'd have been biased as fuck to that little bastard. They're kids but kids are usually nice, or just stare if they don't understand somethi...

Man, yeah, kids are mean. There was even one boy who was imitating me with exaggerated facial contortions and everything. It sucks to not even be able to talk properly to tell people off....

I wish billy from the movie “IT” was real

I wish billy from the movie “IT” was real I actually live in Maine (where IT takes place), and have a stutter. If you don’t know, IT is a horror movie about a clown, and these group of kids called the...

I get what you mean, I haven't had it happen face to face but I've had it happen during work in a call centre with kids doing shit prank calls. Even the other operator has laughed a little at my stutt...

Depends on the severity of the stutter. If it's really bad you'd get more shit for stuttering. And I'm speaking from experience, I have close family that's gay in a reasonably homophobic country. I go...

Humiliated

Humiliated I volunteered to help with our church's VBS this week because I'm trying to talk more, and I figured it was a way to help out and to talk mostly just in front of kids, so less pressure (I s...

I don’t know. They’re both pretty tough to deal with in society. I would think the overt prejudice is more with a stutter and the subtle prejudice is more with being gay. But I’m not gay, so I may b...

At least he mind the stuttering. My dad gets pissed at me when I stutter and acts like I choose to stutter....
