I might. Its still a relatively low chance. In my family, only me, my mum and my uncle stutter. All my cousins, my little sister, grandparents etc, do not. And even if I have children that stutter, ...

Mine too… Well, if you count one other member out of a 50 member family a genetic risk (or normal population distribution). So, if a 2% chance is a deal breaker, then I guess you might want to consid...

as it currently stands, I don't see a life with children. If I had kids doing all the things I've ever wanted to do would suddenly become unattainable. I'm still young, so maybe in the future if I mee...
