My girlfriend always says she has a stutter too because she will stutter once every blue moon. In a weird way it feels a little disrespectful....

Counterpoint: stuttering awareness and compassion for people who stutter/decreasing the stigma will never come until we demand it. Just working harder than everyone else is all well and good for yours...

How so? These are either disabilities/disabling diseases or things that people discriminate against, like a stutter....

I'd imagine that your school equipped you for this, but the most basic thing I think is to assure kids is that it's OK to mess up. No pressure or anything like that. That tends to make to worse. Encou...

Do you live in the U.S? I believe stuttering is covered in the Americans with Disability Act. The fact that he explicitly said it was due to your stutter is outright discrimination. It sounds like you...

Oh FUCK that guy. I was hoping he was just being oblivious but this sounds more like active bullying. And I mean, what kind of church leader goes around bullying kids? You're right, that's just pathet...

That’s messed up that leaders of the church would treat you that way. Have you talked to anyone at the church about it?...

I regret not standing up

I regret not standing up So today at my church me and some other leaders were setting up before youth group. We go and grab corn hole boards and everything and I’m talking with a other leader. We’ll c...

Yeah I think a lot of people don’t even realise he has a stutter! Most people say it’s dementia so I think that is why they bag him out for it...

So true, but just try to remember that he’ll be the oldest president elected into the office in US history, and some people are just looking for any reason to hate him. The cognitive decline narrative...

It makes me pretty sad at the same time because a lot of people have been making fun of him for it and acting like that lessens his credibility...
