Funny, when I was 19 I thought the same thing. But as I have gotten older I have become more comfortable with my stuttering. I think the main thing for you is to be comfortable with yourself first so ...

I can’t make the choice for you, but I’ll say that it’s one of the 10,000 reasons I got sterilized. On one hand, there’s a pretty good chance your children will stutter. On the other, a stuttering ...

The key is loving your stutter, it may be annoying but most of us probably have annoying siblings,relatives,etc but we still have a love for them. You have to love yourself and your stutter before yo...

Yeah, of course. Very sensitive topic with no real right answers. Whatever you decide though as long as it is what you want then I'm sure you'll be happy. You don't have to have kids afterall :)...

Fair enough, I might not of got my point across very well. I just think that having a stutter shouldn't stop you from having kids. Would seem a real shame considering many people with stutters live ...

Well, your statement doesn't really mean anything. Unless you put a gun at my head and say You wanna die or live with stuttering, I'd choose live with stuttering....

Happened to me a lot at school, only once since I left and that was from a customer I served during retail. I got annoyed and told him it wasnt cool and he actually apologised. He didn't realise I had...

Erm, yeah? If you want to of course :) I'm sure you'd rather of been born with a stutter than never born at all...

As a parent, it's hard not to think about those things, but in reality everyone is flawed and your child is going to be dealing with something. It may be even be an advantage if your child's "somethi...

Yeah, not letting other people dictate how you feel is the key here. If other person is an asshole, I'd not let that ruin my day....

That's cool, man, not the not getting the number part haha, but I think we all need to make decisions like that and confront our stuttering. We're all proud of you : )...

Finally had the courage to walk up and talk to a random woman!! (24M)

Finally had the courage to walk up and talk to a random woman!! (24M) So here’s the thing, I have a mild stutter. It used to be more severe as a teen but I’ve learned some techniques through speech t...

Going often to the gym. Saying hi almost every day to the "clerk"(?) made me more confident and, of course, workouts and small body transformations. Still stutter, but honestly I don't even care anymo...

Hey there, I really appreciate your thoughtful response! I think I misunderstood your post initially, but I completely agree with your point now that you've elaborated. From what I understand, you ar...

I used to consider listening an asset, but it can also be a liability. You don't want to become an emotional tampon. Some people are just looking for someone willing enough to listen and they'll never...

There are always a few bad apples in the basket. No matter where you live. Maybe that’s just the life. Skip it and ignore it if you can, if not, just live with it. But never eat it....

Having a daughter with a stutter has taught me to be a better more patient listener. I find myself carrying this skill to all conversations. I used to think people needed constant cues while they were...

I would imagine it is, but anecdotally speaking i know im less likely to interrupt someone speaking because how funny it would look to interrupt someone only to stutter lol....

I feel the same way. However, just for arguments sake, is ‘being a good listener’ one of those traits that most people identify with? Like how studies have shown something like 80% of drivers think th...

I have a friend that says stuttering has made her a better listener. I dig....
