Unless he's a real jerk (which is possible), he probably wasn't laughing at you. It's possible that he was confused or nervous and just laughed as a reaction, or it's possible he just thought you were...

A little off topic, but my dad homophobic fr

A little off topic, but my dad homophobic fr We were talking about my stutter which we rarely do, because I don’t see him to much, but he seemed disappointed in me for stuttering to much at dinner. He...

I work for the public and have to answer phones multiple times a day. I have trouble actually saying the business name when I answer, so the public just get a "hello?" when I pick the phone up. I have...

Most of the time they don’t really care. At least they don’t bring it up or anything. People in general have been pretty gracious for the most part, but there is always the handful that mock me when ...

My husband has had it both ways. His bio mom is pretty terrible about his stutter. She used to tell him, “Don’t embarrass me” when they’d go out or she’d have someone over. She still seems to think he...

Some people are just rude. Support staff ask for the name, but 90% of the time they are going to misspell it anyway. So why not just accept the spelling and move on. My name is very common to misspell...

I hate saying my name. Luckily when I meet a new person at work Im typically introduced by another employee. Though one time when I stuttered my name at work my coworker was very rude about it. She la...

People are not aware of the challenges we face as people who stutter. Think of it as an opportunity to say “I stutter, spelling is easier thank you” and at the end of the day EFF them!!!! 🤌🏻...

Stuttering at work

Stuttering at work I had to call the help desk at work regarding a ticket I submitted. The Technician ask me for my name, so I spelled it out. He then said you don’t have to spell it out, tell me your...

report it. What an awful thing to think let alone say to someone. I hope your next employer sees your value...

its sounds like youve got a pretty shitty family, im sorry to hear that. is there any stutter groups on discord or something like that where you could go onto a video call?...

Agreed…shocking behaviour and completely inappropriate. The kind of behaviour that could really undermine…discrimination if ever there was… I would report him…the fiend...

I don't have a job but where do you report a person like that if that ever happens to me? I'm in India....

My boss told me I only got the job because I was the only one that had applied.

My boss told me I only got the job because I was the only one that had applied. Recently my boss told me to my face that I only got my current job because I was the only one that applied. He said had ...

Does your family think these comments are genuinely in fun, or is it a thinly veiled spiteful "joke"? My family banters, but certain things are just not funny and there are limits. Especially if someo...

Shame on your family for treating you in any way differently for your stutter. You matter, what you have to say matters, and if it takes you a few seconds more to say what you need- Screw them, they c...

They never pick on the stutter itself, because its not socially appropriate. But once they see you as "an easy target" they will pick on you for the smallest thing e.g. untied shoelaces on one day...
