Non-stuttering adult here (I'm in this subreddit because my 10 year old has a significant stutter) Literally no normal adult cares if another adult stutters. In fact, most of the things that mattered...

That sure is rough being in the in-between part of jobs. As far as the stutter goes, it excluded me from tons of jobs. It is true, while my stutter may not be attractive to some employers... others ...
