Ah, gotcha! :) ​ It's quite sad that he isn't using his platform to simply explain how stuttering often presents to listeners...

Oh, I wasn’t disagreeing with you. I was disagreeing with Biden saying he overcame it and elaborating more on your comment. I agreed with what you said....

Everything I said was that he has not overcome his stutter. That’s why I used italics in that phrase...

Moderate to severe stutterer here! I've been streaming on & off since 2011. It's been hard doing it regularly due to life, equipment issues, and of course how I speak. But I keep at it! I've made...

I get what you’re saying but not everyone has a stutter. Sure they stutter but not everyone has one. Also they definitely are a problem but only to the extent we make them really. I find I can make ...

Get her a beautiful notebook and tell her you’d love to read whatever she writes someday. A stutterer chooses involuntarily to be silent more often but thinks the same....

She likes books, and self care. I thought there would be one that someone may recommend. I can see how that may be offensive to some people. Thanks for your input....

I can understand that, but I would stray far away from any "self help" or anything that points out her insecurities. If you really want to get her a gift, just find something she truly likes. If you w...

Makes sense. I just thought along the lines of a book or item that has helped people who stutter gain more confidence. Guess I should've been more specific....

I dont think you can use a stutter as an distinguishing attribute to base a gift purchase on. Its not like all people who stutter like the same things. Also dont think theres a gift that would really ...

My stutter does not make me stupid. Please stop talking to me like I'm stupid....

You really don’t need to do things like this. This is more of an issue about us not willing or u sure how to express ourselves with what WE want - and not other people. We hold ourselves back so muc...

I don't think it's bad advice, it's simply an option. I don't know how old OP is; but when I was younger, I had no choice but to do what the teachers told me to do. School gave me terrible anxiety. I...

I mean not always, I knew a guy who's a stutterer and he was kind of an a hole...

I feel like what I’m about to say has already been said by everyone but ADVERTISE that you have a stutter. It takes the pressure off from yourself in trying to seem “perfect” and it will allow you to ...

One thing that is common and mandatory for everyone that overcame their stutter, is they learned to give f#$& about what other people think or say about them. you need to work on desensitizing you...

I do agree that people who stutter can be very introspective! I guess it's the years of inner discussions and daily struggles that create this philosophical lens to life....
