My husband stutters. I’ve been with him now for nearly 30 years. His stutter has never bothered me. The only time I even give it a second thought is when he’s having a hard time and I know he’s frustr...

I often think about it. But she always just hugs me and says I'm being silly. She's with you for a reason and your stutter doesn't matter to her. You have a good one, well done....

I'm very sorry to hear she's been so obstinate. First, you're right, and you don't deserve to be treated this way. A lot of people here can vouch for people in positions of authority frequently having...

I think it was. "You got this" is very belittling. That's how you'd talk to a small child, not a grown human being. ...

IMO I prefer it when someone helps distract from the stutter. You can see on people's faces when they're just trying to wait it out, it's not nice. It's much more calming for someone to positively and...

Just add another point of view; it wasn't necessarily the capitalisation that I didn't like, it was the "however" that bothered me. "Nice guy, *however* he had a stutter" is such an easy thing for som...

You should absolutely wait it out. “You got this” is condescending as hell😂. That’s something you tell your dog or child when they’re doing something challenging. Unless of course, they can not get ...
