Its something we are all born with. Something is not how it should be in our brains. Nothing major just. Its not something that will dissapear or solutions for. The best way to deal with it is make yo...

It depends. To be honest, your stutter is a part of you but it isnt YOU; accepting your stutter positively is the best think you can do. It isnt a disadvantage, its a fact of life. Having a stutter is...

As someone who mildly stutters now, the best advice to give is to get rid of the idea that you want him to “quit stuttering” because it will always be there. I used to stutter severely when I was youn...

It seems like your son is on the right track. Self-acceptance and non-avoidance are key elements in controlling one's speech, and those can only be achieved by challenging himself in tough speaking si...

It depends on the people you'll meet throughout your life, but it also depends on you a little bit. If you stay positive eventually you'll get positivity, if you stay negative you'll always get negati...

I have a stutter, had one ever since I could speak. Seeing how the speech therapist didn’t help, nor did it help me. I only have one thing I can recommend. Just that you and he need to come to terms w...

There's plenty of people who stutter (PWS) who attend college and do fine. I do suggest if your son takes a speech course or any course where the professor requires a presentation to be made to tell t...

I would advise you to firstly let go of the intention “I don’t want my son to stutter.” That is probably the worst thing to tell him as it builds even more insecurities. The best thing you can do is ...

Was going to use this as a throwaway, but I logged back in to say thanks. That’s relieving. I’m going to keep pushing forward to increase our representation and hopefully help change the stigma associ...

Oh, I'm not minimizing anything. Sometimes, people don't meet on the same page. This is a case of that, I reckon. My comment is in a certain mindset space, and you're in another. I don't think there...

I can tell you are coming from a good place but advice like this is what makes me personally feel worse about my relationship with my stutter. There is a lot of shame that can be tied to stuttering ...

I completely agree with you. DON'T GIVE UP. I am 30 years old, and I stutter myself. I got my B.S. in Biology, so I know organic chemistry 1 & 2 are extremely difficult. Do not give up on being a ...

That is amazing... my mother always tried her best to help me as a child but what we know today is so much more than what we knew when I was 6 years old (I’m 27). The best thing anyone can do for you ...

Oh, I'm perfectly aware of the variance we can experience as stutterers. It's something I mention a lot in here. I'm also very much promoting a positive outlook in here (but you'd have to look for so...

That’s great that you seem to be in a good place with your view on stuttering but as a person who stutters I’m sure you also go through fluctuations in your acceptance of stuttering. Sometimes peopl...
