I’m 24. The last time someone mocked me was a couple years ago and he was like 12. In think people were still mocking me in high school. You’ll meet more mature adults as you get older! Some peopl...

i think people only ever have this opinion if they view disabilities as inherently bad or a dirty word that shouldn’t be uttered. it is a disability. it’s a neurological disability (severe stutters, n...

i think a huge issue is that people, even amongst stutterers (usually ones with mild stutters) argue if anyone says it’s a disability, which it is. i really appreciate your comment and insight! i thin...

This is totally not true. Adults don't laugh at other adults with problems they can't do anything about, except the most insecure and awful people and screw those people anyway. I got doxxed and horr...

Who is trying to accommodate us? How is something like another degree not a big deal economically/time wise? I get where you are coming from, I just don’t get how these things aren’t a big deal. I sup...

Your advice is solid. I agree with you, that is the best way to find a job with our condition. The only problem I have with that is we are cornered to do so. We should have more options. The confide...

I am in your same boat, keep on fighting and eventually you will find one. Once on the same day I had two interviews both at Albertsons but different locations. The first interview my stuttering was...

Our instincts can lie to us but as a social species we should trust them. Why wouldn’t it be his stutter? Stuttering is associated with only negative traits by the public at large. I’ve been told to m...

>*Although I didn’t ever consider it a stutter.* Well, it doesn't really matter what you considered it. If he stuttered then and he stutters now, then it's a pretty safe bet to assume he just stutter...

I fully agree. No one likes to be honest about this, but OP had a child knowing fully well that they have a stutter and that it is a genetic thing. A genetic thing that is highly likely to be passed o...

So anyone with any genetic condition is evil if they have children? I guess everyone in the world is evil to you in varying degrees just for having kids. Wild...

It will stop in a way. No one will laugh directly to ur face, they will just laugh at u behind ur back. As long as u stutter u are a joke to people. Never forget that. The best thing to is to learn h...

Its not just a "higher" chance. Its over 50% if I remember correctly. Stuttering is not evil. The way u will be treated is evil. I have been trough hell cause of this. U are a joke to 99% of people....

I only stuttered in my 20s and I can’t think of a single time an adult ever mocked me. Not once. Granted, mine was a speech block (not a typical stammer), but still… most adults are mature enough to k...

It gets better as you (and the people around you) age and mature. College and my adult life I can many count one one hand the number of times I’ve been mocked. Adults don’t care about your stutter and...

High school kids are dicks. Don't ever take them seriously. Your opinion, at that point of time, is influenced by very few things and mostly pop culture and the people around you. Things definitely i...

Drops off fairly quickly, it does pop up occasionally. If you find the right circle of friends - the bullies will be treated like the children they are....

I’m 62/M. I consider myself lucky. When i was about eight I had a friend who stuttered. Two of my mother’s brothers had a stutter. I learned very early in life to just listen. I saw my friend mocked...

Tell them you hope they never have to deal with something so horrible. If you have kids I hope they don’t stutter or if they do I hope they arnt around people like you. Or you next time it happens jus...

At 53, the only time people mimic my stutter is when they’re angry and they’re trying to make me angry. People have mimicked me so much that by now you’re gonna have to pack a much bigger lunch if tha...
