I think your videos are really good. i can't understate how important it is to keep your outlook and self image in check with this disorder and your videos help do just that. Ignore the negativity, ke...

Some D-bag has gone through and down voted everyone that says having a stutter shouldn't prevent you from having children....

We don't want kids, but my stutter has NOTHING to do with that. I think when you a pws and want kids you go for it. Why not? ...

I have three kids, none of them stutter. None of them care that I stutter. In actual fact, I stutter a lot less talking to the, than I do anyone else. Stuttering shouldn't be a factor in the decisi...

I agree that it's when we try not to stutter that we do... but I appreciate to some extent your refusal of the label. Personally I've transitioned to "I *have* challenges speaking sometimes" rather th...

I'm confused. If you do stutter you are a stutterer. Stuttering is what we do when we try not to stutter. By trying to look away from this part of ourselves we perpetuate the problem IMO....

I think you're spot on, and that's something I definitely need to work on. I really let my stutter define me, and my self confidence takes a big hit every time anyone makes a comment or laughs about i...
