A lot of people in my family stutter, including my sister who has 2 kids. Both of her kids however, do not have stutters. I can't say if there is luck involved, but one great thing that comes out of a...

I hear ya, I worried a bit about this, too. I have a two year old son and another son due in May. As other folks have said, you can't let this define you. My wife said that I would be the best coach/a...

I am 62 years old and never outgrew my stutter. I learned to live with it. It’s sad that people do judge you on when you stutter. I personally don’t think speech therapist helped me. My 31 year old s...

Talk about the stuttering with the parents

Talk about the stuttering with the parents Hi Sub, my parents love me in every way, no matter what, but sometimes they even think that I don't have speech problems and can do anything. For example, wh...

Hey, home alone is a great time to talk! I try to talk to myself a lot, because I’m mostly fluent when alone. I hope your job situation works out. Being jobless can be freeing and scary. Family for ...

Randomly decided to sit with new people for meals at the university cafeteria, and I met my wife that way. Also met a bunch of other new people that I didn't marry 😂🤣 Get yourself out there, meet ne...

Maybe alittle bit different but yes. Distant relationship. We been together for maybe 2 years and call often. My stutter and speechblocks doesn't bother my partner at all. In fact, the moment I got in...

Getting married on the 28th. High school was a little rough but as you get older women think a stutter is cute for some reason. It really didn't effect my dating life at at all. If anything it was ben...

Yes! I 22(f) have been with my boyfriend 21 (m) for a year now! (knew him for 3 years prior to dating) In the beginning I didn’t stutter a whole lot however we were long distance in the beginning (sti...

i'm too broke for a speech therapy

i'm too broke for a speech therapy I wish my parents give me professional help when i'm a kid. I rarely bring up about my stuttering to my parents so yeah basically I got 'not so much' family support ...

*hugs For the record it is a soft spot for me also. I had issues with my kids joking around about it growing up , the joke didn’t work. It still hurt ; even though it was coming from an innocent ...

I know how you feel. One of the reasons why i don’t talk to my dad as much as my mum is cuz he laughs at my stutter and ir sucks. It’s also rlly shit when people close to you (such as ur family) makes...

Sorry to hear what happened. Totally unacceptable your father mocked you like that. Your anger very understandable. It seems to me he has no real idea what this has been like for you, stammering that ...

Well this is a long shot. But ask them how they feel about your stutter. Hopefully this will show you that it doesn't matter to them. Then, you knowing it doesn't matter may help you when talkin...

Have you ever spoken with your parents about your stutter/how it makes you feel? Might be worth sharing if they're in the dark. I don't play fantasy but I'd captain him every week....

I don’t think it’s either. I think he forgets it’s a trauma point and repeats it because it’s interesting/different, like you might forget someone’s pronouns. Not to equate trans rights too strongly...

I honestly think it’s more “remix vibes.” He hears it and unthinkingly copies it, not realizing how frustrating it is. I mean he DOES know, since I’ve told him multiple times 🙄...
