1) It is not a mistake at all, as I think that we all need to figure out our own way of coping and managing it, so do not fault yourself for not being open about it. I am guessing that my stutter is s...

Thank you for your post. Policing is a very macho world. The shit talk that goes on is non-stop and relentless. It’s all in good fun though and no one has ever talked about my stutter (at least not t...
